Are you passionate about delivering an exceptional student experience in a research-intensive Russell Group University? Are you enthusiastic about working with international students and supporting them in reaching their full potential? Would you like to work with students in exploring new topics in project and/or construction management? Do you have proven abilities to successfully supervise MSc dissertations in Project Management, Construction Management and related topics?
We are seeking applicants who will make a high quality contribution to the delivery of our MSc programmes in the field of Construction and Project Management. We are looking for three permanent part-time members of staff (0.25 FTE each) to support us in the supervision of MSc dissertations. In line with our focus on excellence in student education, we require someone with practical, teaching and/or research experience in the field and a strong understanding of research methods. You will become a member of our growing Project Management Group which will provide you with a vibrant and supportive working environment. You will be working from home with most supervisions to be conducted online. However, you must be based in the UK and be prepared to meet your dissertation students twice per year face-to-face in Leeds.
