The Department of Management Science seeks to appoint a part-time Teaching Fellow in Operations Management (OM) on a 0.6 FTE basis. The department runs a highly-ranked MSc programme in Logistics and Supply Chain Management, and delivers several OM-related undergraduate modules. This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to these teaching activities within a research-intensive Management School.
In this role, you will deliver part or all of several OM-related modules, at undergraduate and/or postgraduate level, and be involved in the setting and marking of assessment tasks.

You will also have some teaching experience in the Further Education and/or Higher Education sectors. The role is offered for an initial term of 14 months, although this may be renewed. You will be appointed at either grade 7 (currently £40K-£46K) or grade 8 (currently £47K-£58K), depending on qualifications and experience.
Applications are by letter of no more than two pages setting out why you want the role, and how you meet the person specification. A CV must also be included. Applications must be submitted using the Lancaster jobs portal.
