Lecturer or Senior Lecturer

The University of Buckingham has a unique atmosphere, unlike that of any other higher educational institution. Despite being one of the UK’s smallest university and the only independent university to hold a Royal Charter, Buckingham has staff from over 25 countries, making it a truly distinctive work environment.  Whichever of our locations you find yourself working in, you will be sure to feel a part of our friendly community.  Our size enables us to foster a very personalised, supportive, inclusive and collaborative environment, with lots of opportunity for development, something which we are very proud of. 

The university is keen to build on its strengths to further enhance the teaching and research culture and is looking for a candidate who shares similar knowledge and research exchange ambitions and is keen to make a notable contribution. By joining our passionate and active team, the candidate can expect excellent support in their teaching, research, knowledge exchange and scholarly activity.

The successful applicant will be expected to have degrees in the relevant subject area and relevant teaching and research experience in biomedical sciences. We are particularly interested in candidates with experience in research methods, epidemiology, public health or anatomy. The candidate should have a portfolio that enables them to demonstrate their skills and knowledge in healthcare teaching in a higher education context. Professional qualifications such as a recognised Higher Education teaching qualification or Higher Education Academy Fellowship would be advantageous.

We know that sometimes people can be put off applying for a job if they think they can’t tick every box, but we are invested in our people and their development, so we encourage you to apply if you believe you have the majority of the skills and experience required and are keen to develop further!

• Beautiful working environments across our campuses in Buckingham and Crewe, with plenty of space
