We are currently seeking Associate Lecturers to teach on our postgraduate level Understanding Domestic Abuse and Sexual Violence programmes, both online and via blended learning, taught at our University of Worcester campuses. Our programme sits within the Department of Community, Social Justice and Health, part of the School of Health and Wellbeing at the University of Worcester. The School of Health and Wellbeing comprises three departments and is guided by a commitment to developing a forward-thinking, dynamic, and creative academic community focused on personal growth and professional development in Criminology, Social Work, and Health.
Our students benefit from an outstanding learning experience, and we are looking for colleagues who can contribute to this through flexible, practical, and inspiring teaching and support. Successful applicants will join a small, enthusiastic team. We have been delivering postgraduate domestic/sexual abuse teaching for 20 years.
Associate Lecturer roles sit within a department known for its depth of expertise and collaborative ethos. For applicants looking to build experience in an academic setting, this is an excellent opportunity to work within a supportive and collegial environment. We uphold strong values of professionalism, respect, and inclusivity, and we invite applications from those who share these principles and want to contribute to our ongoing success.
We particularly welcome applications from individuals with expertise in domestic/sexual abuse research and/or practice. We are also interested in applicants who have specialist knowledge of effective work with those who perpetrate abuse and in prevention of domestic/sexual violence.
Further information about our staff profiles and research areas show our depth and breadth of experience and expertise.
