At London College of Contemporary Arts (LCCA), we’re more than an institution — we’re a creative, collaborative, and future-focused learning community.

As part of Global University Systems (GUS) and in partnership with the University for the Creative Arts (UCA), we deliver progressive, accredited programmes that merge academic theory with hands-on experience.

You’ll deliver and help shape our BA (Hons) Business Management programme, supporting students to develop analytical, strategic, and entrepreneurial skills essential for success in today’s fast-changing business environment.

We are particularly interested in lecturers who can teach and lead in the following subject areas:

- Research Methods

- Embed real-world case studies and professional insight drawn from your own experience.

- Maintain subject expertise through scholarly activity, research, or professional practice.

- Collaborate with academic colleagues on curriculum enhancement, course reviews, and quality processes.

- Use digital learning tools effectively to enhance student engagement.

About You

You’re an inspiring academic and practitioner who’s excited by the opportunity to connect business theory with practice. You bring a learner-centred approach, a commitment to inclusive education, and a passion for helping others reach their potential.

Essential

- A Bachelor’s degree and postgraduate qualification in Business or related discipline (or equivalent professional experience).

- At least two years’ experience teaching in Higher Education, including work with students from diverse and widening-participation backgrounds.

- Evidence of innovative and experiential teaching that engages and inspires.

- Excellent communication, organisation, and teamwork skills.

- Confidence in using digital platforms to enhance learning and teaching.

Desirable

- PhD or equivalent research/professional standing.

- Fellowship (or working towards Fellowship) of the Higher Education Academy (HEA).

- Experience teaching at Level 3 to 6 and/or Level 7.

- A strong industry or consultancy background, with networks that enhance employability and enterprise activity.

Why Join LCCA?

- Receive a special weekend teaching premium of up to £5,000 pro-rata, in addition to your salary.

- Thrive in a creative, diverse, and collaborative teaching environment.

- Shape your teaching schedule — weekdays, evenings, or weekends.
