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 Academic Learning Technologist will join the faculty teaching team and participate in the design, delivery and quality control of excellent undergraduate-level learning, teaching and assessment activities. They will be expected to use best evidence in the creation and evaluation of teaching sessions incorporating TEL learning and best pedagogical practice, create and evaluate assessment items and become a Tutor.

The post holder will also develop technology enhanced workflows within institutional platforms, including Microsoft, in and for the academic environment. The post holder will function in a multi-disciplinary team to enhance teaching and learning modalities in the synchronous and asynchronous spaces. The post holder will be responsible for the training of the faculty staff in technology utilisation for teaching and learning.
