As part of our continuing expansion and development we are looking to strengthen our team by recruiting a Senior Teaching Fellow in Warehousing and Freight Transport Management. Teaching will cover warehousing including automation and supporting technologies, warehouse design and overarching management principles and all modes of transport and intermodal approaches with a focus on international supply chains.
You will be involved in the design, organisation, delivery, management and administration of teaching programmes up to MSc level, in addition to the supervision of Project Students up to Doctoral level (depending on qualifications) in a multidisciplinary collaborative environment.
You should hold an Honours degree (or higher qualification) in an engineering, technical, business or supply chain related discipline and have significant practical experience of physical logistics and distribution. You will also need to be versatile, possess excellent communication and presentation skills and be able to operate in a flexible team environment.
