Boasting some of the best facilities in the country and benefitting from strong links with the NHS, our College of Health, Psychology and Social Care has its finger on the pulse of what is currently relevant within these sectors. The College is also home to a Research Centre, conducting multi-disciplinary, high-impact applied research that supports the transformation of services within the field.
As the Deputy Dean of the College, you will be part of the University’s broader leadership team. You will work with other academic leads to support the University’s strategic aims. Whilst predominantly around academic insights, this role will also require you to engage with all areas of the University to lead / support cross-organisational activity and projects.
You will also provide strategic and operational leadership within the College, as directed by the PVC Dean, specialising within the spectrum of learning & teaching, research, international partnerships and/or academic enterprise. You will work closely with Heads of School and other members of the College Leadership Team to operationalise strategic objectives, enhancing the student and staff experience and ensuring successful delivery of the College Business Plan.
To be considered for this opportunity, you will have significant experience of both teaching and senior leadership within a Higher Education setting, as well as significant experience within one of our College Disciplines (Nursing, Allied Health, Social Care or Psychology), combined with experience of defining operational plans and ensuring strategic development in line with corporate goals. You will also have the ability to communicate, translate and operationalise the University and College vision for the future, inspiring and drawing on the support of staff.
