For over 50 years the University of Strathclyde Law School has been educating lawyers who want to make a difference to today’s world.  We focus on learning with impact and want our students not only to have the best classroom based experience but to learn how to deal with real clients in a rapidly changing world. Our research has similarly been rated best in Scotland for intensity and our staff are among the top experts in their fields.  

Due to our rapid growth trajectory and ambitions for the future, we are seeking a range of talented individuals to augment our current staffing profile.

Candidates should have a PhD (or equivalent professional experience) in an appropriate discipline, and have an established track record of teaching and assessment activities. Candidates should also possess experience of curriculum development, and have outstanding communication and interpersonal skills.
