Teaching Fellow in Physiology

Are you passionate about helping to deliver an exceptional student experience in a top-ranked Russell Group University? Can you provide excellent teaching in Physiology and our related degrees?

We are seeking to appoint a highly motivated and successful scientist with the ability and skills to contribute to the world class teaching across programmes within the School of Biomedical Sciences. The University of Leeds obtained Gold in the recent Teaching Excellence Framework assessment; this appointment is therefore a chance for a successful applicant to join a sector-leading group within the UK.

As a Teaching Fellow, you will have a PhD in Physiology or a related area of Biomedical Science, with experience of teaching physiology or a closely related subject. You will have ability to teach at an advanced level with an enthusiastic, and engaging approach to delivery to students studying our undergraduate degree programmes of (i) Human Physiology, (ii) Sports Science and Physiology, (iii) Sports and Exercise Sciences and (iv) Biomedical Sciences.

The key requirement is the ability to teach and assess Physiology at undergraduate and Masters level. The primary criteria for appointment will be academic excellence and potential to further enhance the teaching activity within Biomedical Sciences at the University of Leeds.

The University of Leeds and the Faculty of Biological Sciences are committed to providing equal opportunities for all and offer a range of family friendly policies. The University is a charter member of Athena SWAN (the national body that promotes gender equality in higher education), and the Faculty of Biological Sciences was awarded a Silver award in 2020. We are proud to be an inclusive Faculty that values all staff, and are happy to consider job share applications and requests for flexible working arrangements from our employees. Our Athena SWAN webpage provides more information.
