Description

FIXED TERM CONTRACT FOR 12 MONTHS

The School of Natural Sciences sits within the Faculty of Science, Business and Enterprise, and brings together excellence in biological, chemical, and physical sciences. We are looking to appoint a highly motivated bio scientist to join our team delivering excellence across a range of related programmes at both undergraduate and postgraduate level. Programmes taught within the school can be viewed on the Universities webpage.

We are looking for a candidate with both theoretical and practical experience in biosciences. The candidate would need to have knowledge on the current emerging techniques in biotechnology and stem cell biology. A strong understanding of molecular techniques would be advantageous (PCR, nucleic acid extraction, molecular cloning, gene editing technology). We are particularly keen to hear from candidates with industrial biotechnology experience. The successful applicant should be willing and able to offer both undergraduate and postgraduate dissertation projects that inspire students and give them authentic opportunities for conducting meaningful research. We pride ourselves in the provision of high-quality teaching and giving opportunities to students to be the best they can be. We particularly welcome candidates with an up to date understanding of engaging and effective teaching and learning methods. Opportunities will be available to develop research interests either independently or as part of an expanding group of specialists in the school.

The successful candidate will be joining an active, teaching focused School that also has a vibrant and active research area. In addition, the school includes animal behaviourists, molecular biologists, entomologists, marine biologists, veterinary scientists, forensic biologists, chemical engineers, surface scientists and specialists in drug discovery, offering many opportunities for collaboration.

The taught programmes of interest to the candidate are delivered within Biological Sciences and the person appointed will report to the Head of School of Natural Sciences. 

Candidates should hold a higher degree and have teaching and training experience both in class and in the laboratory. The applicant will be considered for course leadership and so should hold a postgraduate qualification in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education or equivalent or are a Fellow of Higher Education Authority (FHEA). Applications from candidates wishing to work on a part-time basis will be considered. The post is being offered on a fixed term basis in the first instance.

We welcome applications from a diverse range of candidates.
