Contract Type: 3-year rolling Fixed-Term Contract 

The Sino-British College (SBC) is an international university college located in the heart of Shanghai. It was jointly established by the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology (USST) and leading British Universities; the current partnership includes The University of Aberdeen, The University of Bradford, The University of Huddersfield, The University of Leeds, Leeds Beckett University, Liverpool John Moores University, The University of Salford and The University of Sheffield. SBC delivers four-year degrees in Engineering and Business as dual awards with its partners as well as two years of NCUK qualifications for students who wish to complete their degrees in the UK or with our partners in Shanghai. 

SBC was established in 2006 with the express purpose of providing degrees which combine British and Chinese excellence as higher education in China continues to internationalise at a rapid pace. Our vision is to be our partners’ gateway for the internationalisation of teaching, learning, and research and to attract staff and students from around the world to Sino-British transnational education in Shanghai. Our historic campus, dating back to 1909, has excellent purpose-built teaching facilities and is located in the centre of Shanghai, one of the world’s greatest and most dynamic cities. 

SBC provides a supportive and engaging international environment for all students, staff and stakeholders centred around three themes: Responsible Leadership, Enterprise and Innovation, and Cultural Empathy. We develop socially responsible and innovative leaders capable of operating in different cultures. With the support of our partners, we are expanding and diversifying our provision and would like to hire enthusiastic and engaging lecturers to provide the best educational experience for our students.  

To be considered for this exciting position you will be educated to Master’s degree level (or higher) with an ELT qualification (e.g. CELTA or equivalent) and/or significant relevant teaching experience. The successful candidate will work collaboratively within our experienced team to develop students’ academic English and study skills so that they can succeed in an English-speaking university environment, whether they complete their studies here at SBC or in the UK.
