Now is a very exciting time to be joining us because we are delivering a new "Towards 2030" strategic plan focused on making the most of our three most valuable assets; People, Place and Partnerships, to become a catalyst for economic well-being for our region, nationally and internationally. 

We are seeking innovative, creative, high quality researchers, and scholars to foster a culture of exploration, discovery and intellectual challenge that generates international recognition, respect and engagement.

We are looking for a 3 year fixed-term Lecturer able to deliver on our Master of Research programme. The MRes is an interdisciplinary programme and will require a good knowledge of a range of research methodologies, and their use in applied contexts. Based in the Institute of Health, the role will also be expected to contribute to the Institute's research culture, including pursuing their own research projects.
