Working closely with colleagues, employers, practice partners and professional services teams, you will lead curriculum development and contribute to the effective operation of the programme. You will help ensure that the provision remains professionally relevant and meets academic, regulatory and apprenticeship requirements, including off-the-job training, progress monitoring and preparation for Apprenticeship Assessment or End-Point Assessment, where applicable.

You will design and deliver engaging, inclusive and innovative learning, including simulation and digital learning, and provide high-quality academic and pastoral support throughout the apprentice journey. As an AC3 Senior Lecturer, you will also contribute to programme leadership, quality enhancement and the monitoring of apprentice engagement, retention, progression, achievement and satisfaction.

You will have experience of leading learning, teaching and assessment, developing curriculum and working effectively with internal and external stakeholders. You will be able to provide guidance and support to colleagues, contribute to continuous improvement and build productive relationships with employers, practice partners and professional bodies.
