The School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences (GEES) seeks to appoint an outstanding candidate to a Lectureship/Senior Lectureship in Planning.
In order to continue the development of the national and international profile of our Centre for Urban and Regional Studies as a School of Planning, we are seeking to build on our research and teaching expertise in urban regeneration and community/neighborhood planning through an appointment with expertise in transport planning, housing and/or urban design. There will be opportunities to contribute to our highly successful RTPI-accredited Masters programme.
Applicants should enhance our internationally leading research profile by developing their area of expertise as well as investing effort in collaborations with colleagues in the School, elsewhere in the University and beyond. Evidence of a strong track record in publishing work of the highest academic quality and impact, and (for Senior Lectureships) obtaining external research funding is important.
The appointee will be involved in the delivery and management of Planning and Human Geography teaching at undergraduate and Masters levels, and the supervision of postgraduates within our thriving doctoral research community. We intend to appoint an inspiring academic with a demonstrable ability to communicate effectively with researchers, learners, business, civil society and policy-makers.
The purpose of this position will be to create and disseminate knowledge through initiating and conducting original research, through publication and through developing and delivering undergraduate, postgraduate and CPD programmes, as appropriate to the disciplinary area. In addition, there are opportunities to contribute to the School/College through management/leadership, as appropriate for career stage. The appointee will be expected to engage effectively with the policy community and communicate research to a range of academic and non-academic audiences.
Individuals interested in appointment at Readership level should contact Professor David Hannah ([log in to unmask]) in the first instance.
Female and BME staff are under-represented in the School and so we would particular value applications from such candidates. Professor Eva Valsami-Jones is available to discuss the School’s equal opportunities policies ([log in to unmask]; 0121 4145537).
Reference number: 47689
Closing Date: 6 February 2014
