From time to time, members of academic staff may be asked to take on managerial and administrative duties, such as leadership of teaching programmes.

The University recognises that it may be advantageous for the person appointed to be able to accept, within reasonable limits, consultancies or other paid employment outside their University appointment. Permission to undertake such activities will not be withheld without good cause, but it is a condition of appointment that such employment may only be undertaken with the express permission of the Head of School.

This post is a full-time, open-ended appointment.
