The University of South Wales (USW) takes pride in being a vocationally focused University, preparing students for jobs in key sectors in Wales and beyond. We have an ambitious 2030 strategic plan for growth, sustainability, and excellence in student outcomes that have included the reshaping of our faculty structures and the creation of Heads of Subject, who will lead our subject teams in providing the highest levels of student outcomes and developing industry-ready graduates.
The Faculty of Life Sciences and Education (FLSE) is one of three faculties at USW. The Faculty offers courses in subject areas such as Nursing, Education, Psychology, Policing & Criminology, Allied Health and Sport and supports over 12,000 students across multiple locations.
We are seeking to appoint a Head of Subject for Education to be a member of the faculty leadership team to lead the subject, develop its portfolio and grow student numbers while driving forward excellence in student outcomes. A leader who embodies the values we place at the heart of everything we do: professional; responsive; creative; inspiring; and collaborative.
This is a full time, permanent position and will be based at our Newport campus at the University of South Wales.
