Background
In Christ Church Business School, we have around 1150 students based in Canterbury, studying across a range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, with approximately 50 academic staff. In addition, we have a growing body of 20,000 plus students studying on collaborative partner courses across the UK and internationally. Locations include London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Hong Kong, Sri Lanka, Cyprus, UAE and Spain. This makes Canterbury Christ Church, and in particular Christ Church Business School, a very international and exciting place to work.
The overarching purpose of this exciting role is to lead and support partner activity. The role will also ensure an outstanding student and teaching and learning experience at the partner institutions.
The Role
The successful candidate will work closely with colleagues across the University in providing strategic management of the partnership activity. You will work closely with the Academic Link Tutors and Subject Chairs to ensure a smooth daily running of the partnerships, and quality academic standards. The Deputy Director of Partnerships will lead effective and consistent ongoing monitoring of performance and lead on identifying and developing responses to any challenges that arise. You will produce, analyse, and evaluate data of partner performances for quality assurance. You will oversee relevant staff training at the partner institutions, and lead on regulation compliance. It is possible that you can be based regionally in the UK.
The Person
You will be an experienced academic in one of disciplines offered by Christ Church Business School and be able to demonstrate creativity and innovation in the effective planning and delivery of seminars, workshops, tutorials, dissertation supervision, and other forms of learning opportunities. You will be able to provide academic leadership in the development of new modules and courses, which is essential for appointment at Principal Lecturer level.
The successful candidate must have experience of working with collaborative partners in the Higher Education Sector, and understand the unique challenges this brings, which, in turn, makes working in this area particularly rewarding.
You have excellent communication skills and the ability to establish and build relationships with colleagues at all levels, both in the University and the partner institutions. At times you will be prepared to travel and meet partner colleagues in their own institution. Travel to visit the UK based partners will be an integral part of the role.
You are committed to research, enterprise and/or scholarship of practice, open to collaboration both internally and externally and demonstrate your independent research, enterprise and/or scholarship of practice potential in an area that complements or strengthens existing activity within the School.
