We are seeking to appoint two Lecturers in Education and Training to support the delivery of an exciting new programme to transform Royal Navy education and training. The roles offer a high level of flexibility and a great opportunity to build not only teaching experience and expertise but skills in collaboration and external partnership working.  

The University of Lincoln is the Higher Education tier 1 partner in a consortium of companies engaged in delivering ‘Project Selborne’, a large, multidisciplinary training and educational service to the Royal Navy. This partnership, which includes the Royal Navy, is known as ‘Team Fisher’ after the renowned Admiral, Jacky Fisher, who helped transform the Royal Navy over one hundred years ago. The partnership started on 1 April 2021 and is due to run for twelve years with a focus both on delivering and modernising the Royal Navy’s training and education.

As part of this project, the Lincoln Academy of Learning and Teaching (LALT), with its track record in supporting educator professional development, has been asked to develop a series of modules and pathways for Team Fisher educators and course designers to upskill in support of Project Selborne modernisation goals and their own professional development. The development and delivery of these modules and pathways, which have the highest priority for Team Fisher and the Royal Navy, will be undertaken between April 2024 and March 2027.   

The Lincoln Academy of Learning and Teaching (LALT) provides central support for teaching and learning at the University and is organised into three strands, academic development, teaching and learning projects, and the evaluation of pedagogic practice. The Academic Development team is seeking two Lecturers to support the development of a Foundation Degree in Education and Training and the design and delivery of two initial modules at level four and five. The role will be part of a small team to deliver these two modules to up to 900 training personnel between January 2024 and March 2027 with the likelihood of delivery for at least a further 3 years.

The role holders will contribute to the design and delivery of taught sessions and assessing participant learning. Teaching will be predominantly online with some face-to-face practice which will involve travel to sites, primarily in Portsmouth, with potential for other Royal Navy sites to be included. The roles will also work closely with the University’s dedicated Selborne Project Team which oversees the contract and will provide project and administrative support.

Please note that these posts require Security Clearance. Applicants must have at least five years continuous residency in the UK in order to apply for the required Security Clearance.

Informal conversations prior to application are encouraged and welcomed. If you would like further information, please contact Graham Price ([email protected]) and Lucy Prescott ([email protected] or 01522 835527).
