Lecturer in Accounting (Teaching & Scholarship)

We are a world class research-intensive university. We deliver teaching and learning of the highest quality. We play a leading role in economic, social and cultural development of the North East of England. Attracting and retaining high-calibre people is fundamental to our continued success.

The Role
We are seeking to recruit an enthusiastic Lecturer in Accounting (Teaching and Scholarship) to contribute to delivery and development of our undergraduate and postgraduate accounting programmes. We are particularly interested in applicants with expertise in one or more of the following areas: financial accounting and reporting; audit and assurance; non-financial reporting (ESG/sustainability reporting); financial management; and business case studies.

You should either hold a professional accounting qualification (e.g., ICAEW, ACCA, CIMA) or a PhD in a relevant accounting discipline (or be nearing completion). You must demonstrate a clear commitment to developing your profile in teaching and pedagogic scholarship. We are keen to hear from you if you have a proven ability to deliver high-quality teaching in accounting and to contribute to the advancement of pedagogic practice in the discipline. We particularly welcome applications from those with experience of teaching for professional accountancy body examinations such as ICAEW, ACCA and CIMA.

The University has developed an Academic Job Summary Guidance document which summarises the range of activities that academic colleagues may be expected to perform.

The Accounting and Financial Management subject group is a vibrant and supportive community of world-class academics and professionally qualified accountants with extensive industry experience. Colleagues contribute to accounting education and pedagogic scholarship through strong connections with the profession, ensuring our teaching remains relevant and responsive to developments in the field. As a new lecturer, you will be part of this community and will contribute to its continuing strength in teaching, scholarship and professional engagement.
