Are you an experienced academic who can serve as the key contact for students and colleagues for our portfolio of defence programmes within the College of Health and Science?

We are seeking to appoint a Military Programmes Co-ordinator who will be responsible, primarily, for the programme leadership, oversight, management, teaching, and administration of several of our military programmes and short courses.

The College of Health and Science has had significant accomplishments in recent years, developing a range of technology-focused programmes targeted at the defence and allied professions. These range from a suite of short courses, through to postgraduate programmes, including the prestigious MSc Innovation in Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance, which was initially developed in collaboration with RAF Waddington, and the recently validated MSc Military Electronic Mission Protection programme developed in partnership with industry leading military training company Leonardo.

You will have the knowledge, expertise and understanding of military education to be able to lead on curriculum development of defence-related programmes, to provide an excellent standard of teaching and dissertation project supervision as well as student support, to undertake assessment and to provide feedback, to manage student enrolment and other administrative processes. You will play a key role in supporting the College Director of Academic Quality and Standards to develop an outstanding experience for students and in fostering our military partnerships. You will be able to take on responsibility for overseeing the recruitment of hourly paid staff to support defence delivery, co-ordinate and manage teaching space and delivery, and assist in the generation of potential new relationships with industry and the armed forces in the defence arena.

The role will be based at the Brayford Campus at the University of Lincoln with the potential for working remotely as and when appropriate.  

If you have the passion and prior experience of delivering, leading and coordinating high-quality military education, as well as understanding of the specific training and educational needs pertaining to defence engagement, then we would be excited to hear from you.
