As University Practitioner in Game Art, you will have an emerging record of industrial/professional and/or research outputs that are relevant to the post and a Masters degree in a related area. You will have experience of working with diverse teams, and you’ll be able to translate this into a teaching experience that is unparalleled in the university sector.

You will want to accelerate your personal and career growth by immersing yourself in a stimulating environment. You will also crave a supportive environment that expects you to succeed, and you’ll have a clear vision of a rewarding and fulfilling career.

- Character/environment/ technical art
- Game development lifecycle
- Complex game asset development
- Game art pipelines
- Industry-standard art tools and software e.g. Adobe Creative Suite, Autodesk Suite, ZBrush, - Blender and other relevant software
- Theoretical principles such as composition and colour theory

As a Practitioner we expect you to be actively engaged in practice in addition to your role at the University. This can be either through paid employment with another employer, paid consultancy or freelance work.

You’ll be fully committed to equal opportunities and demonstrate an inquisitive attitude towards novel and engaging approaches to research and teaching.

The University is deeply committed to equality and diversity for all its students and staff.  We seek to be diverse and inclusive, supporting individuals and groups to fulfil their potential and nurture a sense of belonging.  We strive to be an accessible, inclusive employer, removing barriers for all.  Find out more about our approach to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, including our commitments and accreditations as a Disability Confident Employer, Stonewall Gold Award holder and Top 100 Employer, Athena SWAN Bronze Award holder and Race Equality Charter Bronze Award holder.
