Location: Lincoln

Salary: From £44,746 per annum

Senior Lecturer in Animal Behaviour & Welfare

The School of Natural Sciences at the University of Lincoln seeks to appoint a Senior Lecturer in Animal Behaviour and Welfare to support teaching and scholarship across our undergraduate and postgraduate provision.

The successful candidate will contribute to teaching across a broad range of animal behaviour and welfare‑related subjects and play an active role in curriculum development. We particularly welcome applicants with experience in teaching applied welfare topics, able to lead modules on Animal Management, Animal Protection and Applied Animal Behaviour, with a proven ability to deliver high‑quality, student‑focused teaching at all levels, commensurate with career stage.

The post would particularly suit a candidate who has expertise in animal welfare and society and who would potentially be interested in taking over programme leadership of an undergraduate degree. We are looking for someone in the field of animal welfare science with knowledge of policy, legislation and knowledge transfer. Strong connections with animal industries and/or animal protection charities would also be of benefit, with interests in companion, farm, laboratory and/or zoo animal welfare.

Alongside teaching and student support, you will engage in scholarship and/or professional practice appropriate to your career stage, contributing to the School’s vibrant academic environment.

The School of Natural Sciences provides a friendly and collaborative environment, with excellent facilities located at the University’s city‑centre Brayford Pool Campus.

The University of Lincoln is committed to equality, diversity and inclusion, and as an Athena Swan Bronze Award holder, particularly encourages applications from women and others underrepresented in STEM.
