Please find below a job opening we have at the University of Leicester. 
Deadline for applications is Oct. 12

About the role
We are seeking to appoint a Lecturer in Digital Media to join our 
well-established Media and Communication unit. You will play a leading 
role in the campus based and distance learning MA programmes and make a 
contribution to the BA Media and Communication degree programme as well 
as contributing to research and administration in the division.

The University of Leicester has the longest established Communication 
and Media unit in the UK founded 55 years ago as the Centre for Mass 
Communication and Research in 1966. Celebrating over half a century of 
cutting-edge research we are committed to academic excellence, 
intellectual diversity, good teaching and ensuring that the student 
experience is not only interesting and challenging in its own right but 
also provides a vital foundation for future employment. Media and 
Communication at Leicester derives its intellectual identity from a 
commitment to tackling ‘real world’ problems in the pursuit of equality, 
diversity and social justice.

You will be expected to contribute world-leading research in an 
established and successful part of the University. Media and 
Communication was ranked 7th in the UK’s 2021 Research Excellence 
Framework evaluation. We are also an important hub for delivering Media 
and Communication undergraduate degree programmes and a wide range of 
Masters programmes to a large cohort of international students.
About you
With experience of teaching Digital Media at university level, you will 
have a completed PhD in Media and Communication, or a closely related 
field. You will be a recognised expert for the subject matter with a 
clear potential or evidence of an emerging record of research income, 
commensurate with career experience.

Motivated by providing the very best experience to our students, you 
will have skills in advising and motivating students to achieve their 
potential.
