Job description
Comprehensive Teaching Rate per hour: £54.16
Standard Rate per hour: £25.48
Leeds Beckett University has roots dating back to 1824 and is one of the largest universities in the UK; we are also one of the largest employers in our city. Our community is made up of people from a range of social and cultural backgrounds, and we are proud that our friendliness, warm welcome and professionalism are consistently commented on by our colleagues and students as well as guests at events such as open days, graduation ceremonies and guest lectures.
Leeds Law School has been teaching law since 1924 and provides a full range of undergraduate, postgraduate and professional courses. We have a long track record of achievement and student success and in all our activities we ensure excellence in teaching, learning and student experience.
We have had considerable recruitment success for our Legal Practice Course and are recruiting Part-time Lecturing staff to support the learning, development and assessment of future solicitors. Successful applicants must be able to deliver teaching during the day and be able to teach one or more of the LPC skills and knowledge areas:
* Advocacy
* Business Law and Practice
* Drafting
* Interviewing
* Legal writing
* Criminal Litigation
* Civil Litigation
* Professional Conduct
* Property Law and Practice
* Solicitors Accounts
* Tax
* Wills and Probate
Applicants should be professionally qualified and have experience of practice, though do not need to hold a current practising certificate. Whilst our LPC teaching is mostly delivered online, successful applicants will need to be able to travel and work in Leeds when needed. Experience of teaching within Higher Education would be a distinct advantage though full training will be given if required.
To apply please complete the short application form and attach a short covering letter and CV outlining your interest and experience.
Closing date: There is no fixed closing date. The advert will remain open until suitable candidates are appointed.
Working here means you'll have access to a wide range of benefits including our generous pension schemes, excellent holiday entitlements, flexible working, reduced study fees, subsidised fitness facilities and a lot more.
We welcome applications from all individuals and particularly from black and minority ethnic candidates as members of these groups are currently under-represented at this level of post. All appointments will be based on merit.
