| Institution | University of St Andrews |
| Job Type | Permanent |
| Location | Flexible within the UK - will consider applications to work remotely anywhere in the UK, on a permanent basis |
The International Education Institute (IE) at University of St Andrews is recruiting for a permanent 0.4 FTE Lecturer in TESOL and Academic English (Education Focused). We will consider requests from applicants to fulfil the role remotely while based elsewhere in the UK on a permanent basis. Unfortunately, we are unable to consider applications to fulfil the role while living outside of the UK.
This post provides the opportunity to contribute to IE’s growing postgraduate TESOL programmes, which include a substantial distance-learning cohort, as well as to provide support to students across other Schools via our Academic English Service (AES). There may also be opportunities to take on academic leadership roles within the department, as well as to contribute to other areas of provision.
The intended start date for this position is 1 March 2021, or as soon as possible thereafter.
WHY WORK FOR IE?
IE has developed a reputation within the UK and beyond as a centre of excellence for EAP (English for Academic Purposes) teaching, and we host an annual conference of international standing dedicated to this area of practice. Our dynamic and experienced teaching team, which includes recent recipients of McCall MacBain and University of St Andrews Teaching Excellence Awards, are involved in a wide range of educational activities, and we have a strong culture of professional development. While this is an education focused post, scholarly activity relevant to learning and teaching is supported financially and factored into workload modeling.
The successful applicant will join IE at an exciting time of change, as we seek to grow further our postgraduate TESOL provision.
St Andrews is one of the oldest universities in the English-speaking world, and is consistently one of the highest ranked institutions in the UK. The Guardian’s 2021 university league table placed St Andrews 2nd overall in the UK, narrowly behind Oxford, and ahead of Cambridge.
We are seeking practitioners who enjoy taking on new challenges, and who have a strong commitment to both their own and colleagues’ professional development.
£41,526 – £51,034 per annum pro rata for 0.4 FTE
