London, UK
Lecturer in design
at Ravensbourne University London
Ravensbourne University London is seeking a lecturer in design to join its team in London.
Job title: 0.4 Lecturer in Design
Job location: Greenwich, London (next to 02 arena)
Level of experience: lecturer
Job type: technologist/designer/lecturer
Job description
The role
Do you have an understanding of at least three of these design subjects and their respective workflows (graphic design, product design, UX/UI, illustration for communication, character design and concept art, advertising and brand design, motion design, digital content creation, animation 2D/3D and others)?
At Ravensbourne University London, we are looking for two technically minded, hands-on lecturers who can work across the design department. The core purpose of the two roles is to support course teams in teaching specialist processes pertaining to the relevant workflows the subjects require.
You will work with our course leaders to design and teach a curriculum, helping to further embed technologies into their courses. Together with technical services colleagues, the roles will extend and deepen the department’s knowledge base.
At Ravensbourne, we are focused on preparing students for industry. This means working to high standards with complex and evolving technology and being familiar with this before graduation.
The candidates
Are you an industry creative who would like to split your time with higher education while maintaining your practice or other endeavours? Or are you an early career creative wanting to build up teaching skills?
We are not looking for research-focused academics for these roles. Any scholarly activity would be knowledge exchange focused or self-development.
If you want to move towards a career in higher education, we can provide a framework to build on, which, if followed, would lead to a teaching qualification. In exchange, we are looking for industry knowledge and experience for our teams.
A key requirement is having a proactive mindset and the ability to tackle unknowns and solve problems.
We particularly welcome applications from ethnic minority and/or female candidates as they are under-represented at this level in this area.
Our university
Ravensbourne University London is an innovative, industry-focused university located at the heart of London’s newest creative community on the Greenwich Peninsula. We’re champions of creativity and collaboration, dedicated to giving our learners the specialist skills and opportunities they need for outstanding careers in digital media and design.
