Lecturer (Lecturer Pool) - BA (Hons) Textile Design

Leeds Arts University is the only specialist arts university in the North of England. We have contributed significantly to the development of arts education for over 170 years, and have developed a national and international reputation based on the achievements of our students and staff. 

We are looking for Lecturers (Lecturer Pool) for the BA (Hons) Textile Design course. Applicants will have a degree in a relevant subject, be able to demonstrate knowledge and expertise as an industry professional, active practitioner or educator in Textile Design.

Appointments will involve short term teaching blocks with frequency of sessions to be confirmed. Successful candidates will be placed on a register and considered for any future teaching that may occur. Experience of teaching at the relevant level is desirable, though experts with significant industry experience and an interest to develop teaching skills may also be of interest. Full details of the essential requirements for the role can be found in the job description.

Details of the Textile Design course can be found on our website: https://www.leeds-art.ac.uk/courses/ba-hons-textile-design

Successful candidates to the pool will undertake a short-paid induction period to enable themselves to be familiarised with the University systems.

Given the adhoc and possibly short-term nature of assignments that may be offered, applications are particularly encouraged from those who are located within an easy commuting distance of the University.

Please note CVs will not be accepted for this position. If you would like to apply, please click the 'apply' button where you will be redirected to our website.

Interviews will be held on Monday 29 September 2025 (remote)
