"Lecturer / Senior Lecturer in Midwifery x2"

We are seeking innovative professionals to join our midwifery academic team. The successful candidates will play a key role in enhancing interprofessional collaboration and contributing to our mission of providing holistic education and support.

You will be expected to support us in delivering Kingston University's Town House Strategy, contribute to the department’s teaching and learning portfolio, and deliver our wide-ranging education provision.

If you feel that you are able to inspire, motivate and communicate with students to promote their development, then this role is for you.

The Department of Midwifery is looking to appoint a full-time member of staff at the Lecturer /Senior Lecturer level (dependent upon experience).

The role will also involve working closely with clinical placement providers, participating in the ongoing development of our midwifery programmes, and supporting the development of simulated and skills teaching. Conducting research and scholarly activity is essential in ensuring that these programmes continually reflect the evolving needs of the healthcare sector and best practices, as well as influencing national and global policy development and strategy.

Applicants must meet Kingston University’s learning and teaching standards. By the end of probation, you must achieve the relevant UKPSF recognition if not already obtained—either through our accredited Introduction to Learning and Teaching programme for new lecturers or the Kingston Academic Practice Standards framework for experienced educators.
