The opportunity

University of the Arts London is looking for a well-qualified and industry-orientated practitioner to join our Fashion PR & Communication course as a Senior Lecturer in PR & Communication.

As a Senior Lecturer on the course, you will be responsible for the pastoral support, progress and attendance of an undergraduate year group and will work to expand the capacity of the course and to drive curriculum development in innovative directions.

You will also be responsible for undertaking research applicable to the discipline, developing opportunities for working with industry, whilst actively contributing to working relationships with colleagues and projects across the Fashion Communication programme and School of Media and Communication.

About you

Fashion PR & Communication is a well-established and highly regarded course, so you will need significant expertise to lead and build on its forward-thinking vision. You will understand media and Communication in a broad cultural and creative context and have a keen awareness and interest in innovation, advocacy and policy and emerging/frontier technologies to support student interests and projects.

There is a rich culture of knowledge exchange on the course so you will have the ability to establish and leverage extensive industry connections and networks to provide significant opportunities in the curriculum.
