About the role

We are seeking an enthusiastic and experienced Lecturer in Children’s Nursing to join our School of Healthcare. This teaching-focused role offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to research-inspired education and deliver world-class teaching across undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. You will play a key part in shaping innovative curricula, supporting student learning, and ensuring an outstanding student experience.

Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy or an equivalent accredited teaching qualification is essential, or you should be willing to achieve this within an agreed timeframe. Above all, you will share our values of inclusivity, inspiration, and impact, and be committed to shaping the future of healthcare education.
