The University of Essex School of Sport, Rehabilitation and Exercise Sciences (SRES) was created in August 2017, bringing together a diverse community of academics. As a large school, we offer our students a wide range of courses with a blend of experiential learning. SRES is recognised across the world for taking excellence in both education and research seriously. We deliver courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels in subjects like sports and exercise sciences and psychology, physiotherapy, sports therapy, and sports performance. SRES also presents exciting opportunities for new inter-disciplinary collaborations within the university (Institute for Public Health and Wellbeing; School of Life Sciences; Institute for Social and Economic Research; the Centre for Brain Science; School of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering, School of Health and Social Care; and the Institute for Analytics and Data Science) and partnerships working with external agencies (e.g., The Rugby Football Union, England Institute of Sport, Royal Ballet School).
We are seeking to appoint a Lecturer in Physiotherapy to complement our existing staff and contribute to our three very successful pre-registration physiotherapy degrees. We would welcome applications from candidates who have experience beyond the field of musculoskeletal to complement our existing staff expertise. Whilst the successful applicant will be part of our physiotherapy team, we would consider applications from candidates who do not have a physiotherapy degree but could contribute positively to our programmes (e.g., other allied health professionals, rehabilitation and/or exercise professionals).
We also wish to develop the School’s research in physiotherapy and rehabilitation and the successful applicant will be expected to make a significant contribution to this goal. The successful candidate will possess a relevant doctoral level research degree in physiotherapy or a related discipline or be close to completion of PhD.
