Job description
The University of Law (ULaw) is one of the world’s largest law schools. With an impressive history dating back to 1876, we employ over 900 staff and have over 14,000 students studying on our undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, along with an alumni network in excess of 100,000. We were the first-ever independent institution to be granted degree awarding powers and in 2012 we gained university title. In 2016, we opened our leading Business School, further enhancing our reputation as a full service legal, business and educational training specialist, operating from fourteen campuses throughout the UK, Berlin and Hong Kong.
We currently have the following vacancy within our Nottingham Team: Law Tutor
The Nottingham Campus was launched in 2019 and is exceptionally well placed as a legal and tech hub within the Midlands, with strong links into local firms and businesses. Located in the heart of the city, adjacent to Nottingham Castle and the arena, our Nottingham Campus sits within the immediate vicinity of local law firms and businesses. We are looking to recruit someone who could either have been a law tutor, qualified solicitor or a barrister who can demonstrate successful legal practice experience. You will enjoy being challenged (by students and course content in equal measure) and be able to adapt to the different learning styles of students and methods of course delivery. You will be eager to share your expertise and become involved in all aspects of enhancing the student experience within our campus, including teaching on our LPC, GDL, BPC and LLB programmes. Please note that classes are also routinely delivered over weekends and evenings and tutors are expected to work flexibly within these parameters.
We have a particular interest in tutors with skills in business law, equity and trusts, private client, real estate, contract, public law and employment.
Separately we are interested in tutors who can teach on the Bar Practice Course in criminal law.
As part of the tutor development programme, we will also support you to study for a recognised teaching qualification within your first 18 months of employment.
If you would like to arrange an informal discussion prior to application, please contact Harriet Pearce (Campus Academic Manager) at harriet.pearce@law.ac.uk.
Part time and full time applications will be considered.
No agencies please.
Some posts within the University are subject to a DBS check – you will be notified of this during the application process.
As an equal opportunities employer, we welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons. However, as Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) individuals are currently under-represented within the University – which does not reflect our diverse student body – we would particularly welcome applications from BAME candidates. All appointments will be made on merit.
