Lecturer / Fisheries and Marine Studies (Higher education)
Salary: Up to £36,507 (depending on qualifications and experience)
This role is offered on a fixed terms basis for 12 months / fixed term for the reason of maternity cover.
University Centre Sparsholt is looking to appoint a lecturer in Aquaculture, Fisheries and Marine studies to cover a period of maternity leave. The successful candidate will be part of the friendly and ambitious Higher Education team and will teach across our degree courses in the Aquaculture, Fisheries and Marine subject area. This academic role will involve delivering both taught and practical sessions alongside supporting and tutoring our students.
In particular, we would love to hear from applicants with knowledge or experience in salmonids, aquaculture, marine environments, and ecology, although candidates with experience in broader areas would also be of interest.
The post holder should ideally be educated to at least Master’s level in a relevant subject area or have equivalent experience within the industry. The post holder will ideally hold a recognised teaching qualification or be willing to attain this qualification through study provided by Sparsholt. All staff will engage in CPD and scholarly activity, and there are opportunities for personal development appropriate to the role. Within the role, there will be time to pursue research utilising the on-site facilities.
Our teaching and research take place in our Aquatics Research and Conservation Centre, as well as our Salmonid Rearing and Trials Centre, which allows us to provide industry-leading facilities. This post will be based at the Sparsholt Campus. Whilst this is a maternity post initially, there may be the possibility of further opportunities in the future for a successful appointee.
The College is committed to safeguarding and promotes the welfare of all learners and expects all staff to share this commitment. All successful applicants will be required to undertake a Disclosure and Barring (DBS) check and to provide proof of their eligibility to work in the UK.
