Teaching Fellow in Educational Development in London

The Educational Development Unit (EDU) at Imperial College London is seeking to appoint a new Teaching Fellow in Educational Development, based at the South Kensington campus. The postholder will work as part of a small team of experienced staff who work collaboratively to support and enhance learning, teaching and educational development across Imperial. This is an exciting opportunity to work at an institution with an excellent international reputation that consistently achieves high national and international rankings.

What you would be doing:

• You will contribute to the delivery of the EDU’s institutional provision, taking responsibility for a selection of standalone workshops and participating in the development and delivery of the unit’s academic programmes and the Imperial STAR Framework.
• You will contribute to general educational development work in support of Imperial’s academic and education strategies and initiatives and, while the EDU is not an education research unit, its staff are encouraged to engage in scholarly activity.

What we are looking for:

• Recent experience as an educational developer and/or trainer in a university or similar environment and be knowledgeable about higher education.
• A confident communicator who can engage effectively with a wide range of Imperial staff, including academics, senior managerial staff and others involved in supporting learning and teaching.
• Experience of working in a STEMMB (science, technology, engineering, mathematics, medicine or business) context would be desirable.

What we can offer you:

• The opportunity to continue your career at a world-leading institution and be part of our mission to use science for humanity by sharing your passion and inspiring the next generation.
• Join a diverse and innovative learning and teaching community at an institution that values research-led educational provision.
• Sector-leading salary and remuneration package (including 41 days off a year and generous pension schemes).
• As a teaching fellow you have 10 development days to invest on your own development and build your practice skills.
• Be part of a diverse, inclusive and collaborative work culture with various staff networks and resources to support your personal and professional wellbeing.

This is a full-time, open-ended position based at South Kensington campus (hybrid). If you require any further details about the role, please contact Professor Martyn Kingsbury.
