Lecturer/Senior Lecturer Law

The Role

We welcome applications for a full-time or part-time Lecturer or Senior Lecturer position in Law. You will primarily teach on our dedicated LLB and LLM programmes. You will be able to deliver engaging and interactive teaching across a range of subjects, with specialisms in public law and human rights law. An understanding of the professional qualification frameworks for lawyers including the SQE will also be helpful.

A student-centred approach will be essential in everything you do, helping our students achieve their full potential.

At Lecturer level, you will contribute to teaching and assessment at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, supervise student projects, and engage in pedagogic innovation.

At Senior Lecturer level, we expect evidence of leadership in curriculum design, programme development, or student experience initiatives, along with substantial teaching experience.

This role is primarily teaching-focused, and ideal for those who are passionate about delivering outstanding student learning and experience through evidence-informed and reflective practice. Whether you specialise in innovative pedagogy, inclusive curriculum design or practice-based education, you’ll be encouraged to share and develop your expertise. All academic staff benefit from dedicated time for professional development, pedagogic research, and dissemination of teaching practice, with opportunities for progression and recognition through the Learning and Teaching pathway. We welcome applications from those new to higher education, and legal practitioners who wish to develop a career teaching in a university.

We support agile working and offer flexibility where this is compatible with the specific academic role. Outside of required on-campus commitments (including teaching, student support and key in-person events such as open days and graduations) duties may be undertaken remotely within the UK, subject to agreement. You will be expected to manage your working location so that all on-campus responsibilities are met.
