Visiting Lecturer in Sport and Exercise Science

The University of Roehampton is seeking to appoint Visiting Lecturers to join our Life Sciences team to teach on our undergraduate and postgraduate programmes. We are particularly interested in people who have teaching experience and expertise in one or more of the following disciplines: Sport and Exercise Psychology, Sport and Exercise Physiology and Sports Therapy at HE levels 4, 5, 6, and 7. The appointment/s will involve leading and delivering modules and assessment marking. We are also keen to hear from those with experience and expertise in supervising BSc dissertation projects on topics related to above disciplines as it may also involve contributing to student project supervision and pastoral care.

We encourage a blended learning approach to teaching, combining traditional lectures, seminars, practical sessions, and student-led discussions in our teaching approaches. We also support students by providing activities and material that extend beyond scheduled contact time. There are currently established resources for the majority of teaching to be covered.

Successful applicants will have experience in many of the blended teaching approaches listed above, as well as with supporting students, and marking assessments, at an undergraduate level. Experience with online platforms such as Moodle is desirable. We are seeking individuals who are: student focused; demonstrate excellent interpersonal and analytical skills; and can work flexibly.

The rate of pay for Visiting Lecturers is £44.66 per classroom contact hour plus £10.34 of holiday pay per hour. This hourly rate reflects the requirement for preparation, assessments, meetings and marking. Additional marking and moderation and content development is paid at the rate of £22 per hour plus £3.96 of holiday pay per hour.
