Lecturer in Sport (Further Education)

This is an exciting time for Hartpury, as from September 2018 we became both a university and a college on a single campus; an amazing achievement in the history of our institution particularly in our 70th year.  As a land based residential institution renowned for excellence in sport, equine and land based studies, we aim to provide a unique high quality experience in a focused and supportive environment, challenging our learners in the pursuit of excellence. Hartpury College of Further Education was graded ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted in May 2018. The overall effectiveness of leadership and management, the quality of teaching, learning and assessment and the 16-19 study programmes all received the highest grade from Ofsted.

We are seeking to appoint a highly enthusiastic and self-motivated lecturer who will teach and tutor across our BTEC Level 3 Physical Education and Coaching, Sports Science and Fitness programmes. You will also be expected to deliver a recreational sports club one afternoon per week to enrich the student experience.

You will be expected to deliver exceptional teaching which will assist students to achieve excellent results. You will be able to inspire students to appreciate and enjoy all aspects of sport, instilling in them a passion for the subject and a desire to develop their understanding.

The successful candidate will hold or be working towards a teaching qualification. You will also have strong communication and administrative capabilities. Experience of delivering Sport within the further education sector would be advantageous but is not essential.

We offer excellent benefits including continuous professional development opportunities, 35 days annual leave entitlement plus bank holidays, onsite fitness facilities, free onsite parking and lots more.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.  We will ensure that all our recruitment and selection practices reflect this commitment.
