This is a 0.5 FTE, fixed term appointment for three years.

 

LAWS (Legal Academic Writing Skills) is the Law Department’s flagship skill development programme for undergraduate LLB students. The programme is designed to assist students in the development of the technical and transferable skills that are essential not only for the successful completion of the degree, but also for their future employability in the legal profession. As part of a recent review the Department has decided to develop the programme and is therefore looking to recruit a LAWS Programme Director (0.5 FTE) to take this exciting project through its next stage of development and to contribute to its long-term success.

 

The post holder will work with undergraduate students and with Professional Services and Academic Staff to co-ordinate the delivery of a world leading legal skills programme for law students. They will be expected to design and deliver LAWS lectures, work with students in groups and on a one-to-one basis, and to deliver strategic vision for the development of the LAWS programme and allied extracurricular programmes.


Candidates for this post should have a higher degree (Masters’ or PhD) in Law and experience in teaching Law at Undergraduate and/or Postgraduate level. Experience of advising students/ undertaking pastoral work and of curriculum development is advantageous. The other criteria that will be used when shortlisting for this post can be found in the 'person specification', 'job description' and 'how to apply' documents.

 

We offer an occupational pension scheme, generous annual leave and excellent training and development opportunities.
