Central's mission is to inspire, educate and train the change-makers of tomorrow to shape our artistic and social world. We provide world-leading and transformative education that positively impacts society and culture and produces exceptional research and scholarly outputs.

We seek colleagues with experience of teaching and learning in Higher Education, who are committed to excellence in student experience and success. You will be able to draw upon a depth of subject knowledge and professional practice to oversee a curriculum that fosters equity and inclusion, is at the cutting edge of musical theatre and acting practices, and is grounded by the skills training necessary for the industry.

You will be joining a supportive and dynamic department of academics, educators, and practitioners that is home to a range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses relating to Performance and its pedagogies. You will have teaching and assessment responsibility for modules, primarily within the provision of the course you lead. You will also contribute to Central's wider learning community, with an expectation that the role will maintain a portfolio of high-quality research, scholarship, and/or knowledge exchange, supported by or in collaboration with colleagues across our academic departments. You will be joining Central at a time of strategic change and will contribute to that change within these courses and across the School as a whole.

Taking on the remit of Programme Leader for an initial fixed term period of five years, you will be appointed to a grade and title commensurate to experience (Lecturer/Senior Lecturer).
