"Lecturer or Teaching Fellow in Digital Construction and Immersive Technologies"

What we’re looking for

We are seeking to appoint an academic colleague in Digital Construction and Immersive Technologies, with appointment made at either Lecturer or Teaching Fellow level depending on the experience and profile of the successful candidate. This post sits within the School of Engineering and Built Environment and will play a key role in strengthening the school’s digital and technology-enabled teaching capacity across built environment disciplines.

The successful candidate will deliver high-quality teaching and contribute to curriculum development that embeds a wide range of digital tools used in professional practice, including information management platforms, digital modelling and BIM software, simulation and analysis environments, costing and planning applications, and immersive technologies. We are looking for someone with hands-on experience of using digital technologies in project-based or professional contexts who can translate this expertise into engaging, practice-focused learning experiences for students.

A key aspect of the role will involve supporting and coordinating activity within the School’s Immersive Lab, helping colleagues and students make effective use of virtual, simulated and interactive learning environments. The postholder will also contribute to curriculum enhancement and module development aligned with industry and School needs.

Applicants should hold a relevant honours degree and a postgraduate qualification (or equivalent experience) in a discipline aligned with the digital built environment. A commitment to inclusive, student-centred learning, ongoing professional or scholarly development, and meaningful engagement with industry and digital innovation is essential.

This is an exciting opportunity to help shape digitally enabled, future-focused built environment education within a supportive and forward-looking academic community.
