The Departments of Civil Engineering and Environmental Management (CEEM) and Construction and Surveying (CAS), within the School of Computing, Engineering and Built Environment, represent a dynamic and vibrant collegiate academic community with a strong track record in applied research, innovative teaching, and knowledge transfer activities. Collectively, the two departments encompass the academic areas of Building Surveying, Building Services Engineering, Construction Management, Environmental Civil Engineering, Environmental Management and Quantity Surveying. The departments bring together a highly motivated and exciting team of over 40 academic staff with skills and expertise in the development and delivery of industrially relevant undergraduate and postgraduate programmes of study across which we have approximately students enrolled.

We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic and inspirational lecturer to contribute to the continued growth of the two departments.

We are seeking individuals who have a passion and enthusiasm to deliver innovations in learning and teaching and to develop research and knowledge exchange opportunities. Individuals will be expected to explore novel and emerging areas of construction and deliver excellent quality teaching.
