Colleagues & List Members,
Due to continued growth in one of the UK's largest universities, I am
delighted to announce the following position:
UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL LANCASHIRE, Preston, UK
LANCASHIRE BUSINESS SCHOOL
DEPARTMENT OF TOURISM & LEISURE MANAGEMENT
Division of Tourism and Hospitality
Lecturer in Tourism and Event Management (One year limited term
contract)
Lecturer :£25,570 to £31,881 per annum (new Framework Agreement scales
pending)
A suitably qualified person is required to fulfil an additional role of
Lecturer in Tourism and Event Management, initially as cover for a
member of staff on secondment. However, the role will provide an
excellent development opportunity for the right candidate to establish
an academic profile in Higher Education.
The role will involve teaching aspects of the subject/s of Tourism and
Event Management on a range of modules and in particular teaching an
introductory tourism module to tourism students. Desirable would be the
ability to teach service operations management to students on events,
tourism, and hospitality programmes. The role will also involve visiting
students on Placement throughout the UK and, if appropriate,
internationally.
Tourism and Event Management is a growing area within the Department on
many fronts. There is an increasing research culture and the Department
will make a major contribution to the RAE profile of the Faculty.
Already the Institute of Transport and Tourism, headed by Prof Les
Lumsdon, is at the cutting edge of this contribution to new knowledge in
the area. In the medium term there will be a step change in research
capacity and the recent appointment of an additional Professor of
Tourism will help to achieve this aim.
Reference Number: 248E-08-06
Closing Date: 22nd June 2007 at 4pm
