Our students gain the subject knowledge and ethical awareness needed to thrive in journalism and content creation both within fashion and beyond.
Working as part of a collaborative and supportive course team, you will draw on your specialist expertise to enrich our pedagogy and curriculum.

We are looking for someone who is recognised as an authority in their field, with a proven track record in research, teaching, knowledge exchange, or professional practice that advances the discipline.
A strong academic background and experience of teaching and assessment in higher education is essential, combined with a passion for education and a commitment to nurturing the next generation of fashion journalists and content creators.
You will also be an effective communicator, a collaborative colleague, and someone who thrives in a diverse and creative learning environment.
