You will bring experience or a strong understanding of higher education teaching, assessment, and quality assurance, with the ability to engage and inspire students using a range of contemporary and technology-enhanced learning approaches.

The successful candidate will be an excellent communicator who thrives both independently and collaboratively, builds strong relationships with colleagues and external partners, and is committed to fostering an inclusive, supportive learning environment. You will be innovative, adaptable, and organised, with the ability to manage competing priorities while maintaining high standards of professionalism.

A sound understanding of the higher education landscape, graduate employability, and the evolving needs of healthcare education will enable you to prepare students for successful careers in contemporary nursing practice. Above all, you will share our commitment to continuous improvement, professional development, and delivering an outstanding educational experience that reflects the University's values.

We are Disability Confident Employers, demonstrating our commitment to disability inclusion, and invite applicants to highlight adjustments they may require to ensure equitable participation in our recruitment processes.

Further, we are committed to ensuring an environment which is trans and non-binary-inclusive for all our staff, students, partners, and visitors, and continuously review our policies, guidance and training.

When applying to join the University, you can choose your preferred title, including the gender-neutral title 'Mx'. We also ask our candidates if they would like to share their preferred pronouns. This is voluntary but demonstrates our commitment to inclusivity for trans and non-binary candidates. Once employed, you can add pronouns and preferred names onto our system.

The University of Derby undertakes anonymised shortlisting during the staff recruitment process.

However you identify, we actively celebrate the knowledge, experience and talents each person brings. Our students come from a wide range of backgrounds; therefore we are particularly interested to hear from applicants who will help our leaders and teams be more reflective of our student population.
