The Department of Clinical Sciences and Nutrition wish to appoint a suitable individual, to the position of Lecturer in Nutrition & Dietetics. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the field of Nutrition and Dietetics and inspire the potential workforce of the future on our expanding Dietetics provision.
The department is one of the largest providers of nutrition programmes in the UK and has been responsible for delivering dietetics education and training on behalf of the North West region since 2002. In 2022 we were ranked first in the UK for graduate prospects in Nutrition (Complete University Guide, 2022).
We are looking for a registered dietitian who has some prior experience of teaching, learning, and assessment in Higher Education, which can be developed further, and who is passionate about training dietitians. You will also have insight into and a desire for a career as a clinical academic.
You will contribute to teaching, learning, and assessment on both the BSc and the MSc Nutrition and Dietetics programmes and, as appropriate, may contribute to the delivery of other programmes in the department such as obesity and weight management, cardiovascular health and rehabilitation, and human nutrition.
We require candidates to hold a degree in Nutrition and Dietetics, HCPC Dietetics registration, some previous experience of teaching and learning in Higher Education and a Masters or higher degree. A previous record of working with clinical trainers is desirable and an emerging or developing research profile desirable.

The Department consists of high-profile leading-edge practitioners and academics with aspirations to create new provision and research in the field. Considerable opportunities for career progression also exist.
