2 x 3 year lectureships in our team at the University of Manchester

Obviously I wish these were permanent but in the current climate I’m delighted we have two posts which are three years. It’s a genuinely supportive, warm and enthusiastic multidisciplinary team which has been my professional community for the last five years:


We are seeking a motivated and collaborative individual to join our team as Lecturer in Digital Education (Teaching and Scholarship) within the Manchester Institute of Education (MIE), part of the School of Environment, Education and Development (SEED), Faculty of Humanities.

This role offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to teaching and scholarship within the Digital Technologies, Communication and Education (DTCE) programme, a well‑established and internationally recognised area of teaching and research. The DTCE team explores the intersections of digital technologies, AI, design and education, with a strong focus on digital inequality, digital development and digital sustainability.

This is a full‑time, fixed‑term post for three years, starting 1 September 2026, based in the Ellen Wilkinson Building on the University’s Oxford Road campus.

The first one is available here: https://www.jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetail?JobId=45249 my understanding is the second post will be released soon.

Please share with anyone you know who might be interested!
