Lecturer in Pharmaceutics

The School of Pharmacy and Life Sciences offers high quality teaching, research and CPD across a range of subject areas. Our course portfolio is broad and includes our recently GPhC reaccredited Master of Pharmacy (MPharm) as well as BSc courses in Biomedical Science, Biological Sciences, Forensic Science, Pharmacology and Pharmaceutical Science and MSc courses in Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology and Biomedical Science.

We are seeking to appoint a Lecturer in Pharmaceutics to join the team to contribute to the teaching across the School and contribute to the future development of our portfolio. We are specifically looking for expertise and ability to contribute to teaching in one or more of the following areas: pharmaceutics; medicinal chemistry; biochemistry; molecular or cellular biology; molecular pharmacology; toxicology and bioinformatics across several courses.

You will have a minimum of a first degree in a related discipline and either a doctoral level qualification in a relevant area, or similar professional experience. We are keen to recruit someone who can contribute to the development and delivery of innovative learning and teaching, informed by your research or professional expertise, across our courses. 

We would welcome an individual with research that would complement the current activity within the Faculty of Science and Engineering. You will have a developing track record in research in a relevant field, including research outputs that could contribute to the next REF exercise, and some experience of attracting external funding for your research, from either national or international funding bodies. 

You will have achieved a recognised teaching qualification (e.g. AFHEA, FHEA or PGCertHE) or be willing to undertake such a qualification.  

We are committed to promoting and developing a culture of excellence, diversity and mutual respect that supports all our staff and students and welcome applications from all sections of society.

For an informal discussion about the post please contact the Head of School, Professor Sabbir Ahmed (Sabbir.Ahmed@wlv.ac.uk) or Head of Department, Dr Mark Hewitt (M.Hewitt@wlv.ac.uk).
