About the role

We are seeking to appoint a Lecturer in Medical Technology (MedTech) within the School of Engineering. The role is focused on establishing an independent base for research and research‑inspired education in the field of biomedical imaging and artificial intelligence, with relevance to medical and healthcare technologies. The post holder will predominantly contribute to the Biomedical Engineering Research Group, with potential to collaborate with colleagues in Digital Manufacturing and Management and Mechanics of Materials depending on research focus. 

Alongside research, the role includes teaching across undergraduate and postgraduate engineering programmes as required, supervising student research projects, and contributing to the development of new and existing taught provision. The post holder will also undertake appropriate administrative duties, contribute to outreach and recruitment activities, and support the effective academic and operational functioning of the School and wider University. 

About you

You will have a good first degree in engineering, science or applied mathematics, together with a PhD or equivalent research or industrial experience in a relevant field such as medical or healthcare technologies or medical devices. You will demonstrate a developing or established track record of high‑quality research publications and the ability to plan and deliver a substantive research programme, including the preparation of competitive funding proposals. You will also hold, or be willing to work towards, professional registration and a recognised academic teaching qualification.

You will be an effective educator with the ability to teach, supervise and assess students at undergraduate and postgraduate level, and to contribute to curriculum development using appropriate teaching approaches. Strong communication and interpersonal skills, the ability to manage competing demands, and the capacity to work collaboratively within an academic environment are essential for success in this role.
