Based at Falkirk Campus

Fixed-term to July 2025

The Department of STEM & Construction are looking to recruit a Lecturer in Electrical Engineering/Installation work with learners across SCQF levels 5 to 8.

This role will be workshop and classroom based and will deliver on NC/HN and SVQ programmes. The role will include working with a range of students from different industries, including Electrical Installation and Power Engineering modern apprentices as well as full time students. While the role will be predominantly based in Falkirk there may be a need to travel to other sites to deliver classes, therefore a driving licence is essential.

You will be a qualified Electrical Engineer or Electrical Installation operative and may have SJIB grading. You will have industrial experience in the required subject area. While you may not have any instruction experience in a formal college setting, you may have worked with apprentices or trainees and contributed to their development and job knowledge. An assessor/verification qualification is desirable but not essential, though there will be opportunity for you to work towards these qualifications. Together with excellent presentation and communication skills you will have knowledge and understanding of vocational qualifications.

You will produce high quality learning, teaching and assessment materials, and deliver excellent teaching relative to the specialist areas of Electrical Machines, Power systems and installation within the electrical engineering and installation curriculum.

Ideally, candidates will hold a Degree in Electrical Engineering or a relevant HNC and industrial experience. Teaching experience is desirable but not mandatory; the successful candidate should be prepared to work towards TQFE, Assessor and Verifier qualifications.

You will work as part of a team to ensure that the curriculum is relevant and up-to-date. You will also have appropriate ICT skills and possess good knowledge and understanding of health and safety.

The closing date for this post is 16 October 2024.

Interviews for this post will be held on our Falkirk Campus on Monday 28 October 2024.
