About the role

The School of Management invites applications from excellent candidates for creative and innovative finance teaching. The successful applicants will help deliver high quality teaching in undergraduate and postgraduate finance. They should also be ready to take on administrative roles later, such as Director of Studies. These are teaching posts, so there is no requirement to publish research in academic journals and no supervision of doctoral students. In other respects, the post is equal to one with a research & teaching contract, with the same salary scales. The successful applicants will join the Accounting, Finance and Law Division (AFL), one of four Divisions within the School of Management. We are 37-40 colleagues in AFL, around half on teaching contracts, the others on research & teaching contracts with half teaching loads, from lecturer to full professor in each contract type.

The Division’s teaching portfolio includes a specialist undergraduate BSc in Accounting and Finance and a range of postgraduate MSc degrees (in Finance, Accounting & Finance, Finance & Banking, Finance & Risk Management). In addition, our new BSc Finance which will take its first students in September / October 2026. The School is also responsible for teaching courses in accounting and finance to students within the university outside the School of Management. We operate a two semester academic year, starting in September / October for Semester 1, then January / February. Successful applicants should come prepared to take on teaching immediately in Semester 1 2026.

The School of Management has occupied a new building, since late 2022, bringing us together in one convivial place with modern facilities.
