The role of an Associate Lecturer is to deliver support to the department through teaching, teaching preparation and marking through peak times of delivery.

We can offer a range of different options for flexible hours;

We have core teaching hours which are aligned to block week delivery which are set weeks throughout the year up to 30 hours or we can offer 1 or 2 days a week throughout the semesters, or we can offer more ad hoc delivery on a needs basis or for marking.   

Please contact the recruiting manager to discuss options that may suit you around any other commitments you may have.

Applicants should have an awareness of the current trends, issues, and developments in construction and surveying both nationally and internationally and will be expected to demonstrate an applied understanding of current industry developments during the selection process.

You do not need previous experience of teaching, as this is a great opportunity for an applicant with practical experience and a desire to inspire the next generation of Quantity Surveyors, Building Surveyors &/or Construction Project Managers to embark on a career in academia.

We offer a diverse range of benefits and opportunities to pursue a rewarding and fulfilling career in a supportive environment.
