    Description

    The Defence Studies Department which celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2022, is one of the few academic departments in the world focused on understanding the complex realm of war, conflict resolution, security, defence and international politics and relations through inter-disciplinary teaching, research, and engagement. Based at the UK Defence Academy in Shrivenham, Wiltshire, the Department of Defence Studies is home to a vibrant community of circa 70 academic staff, and sits within the School of Security Studies, alongside the Department of War Studies, which is based in central London.

    The post-holder will need to demonstrate a capacity for leading in teaching and research, contract negotiation and financial planning in the context of the unique position of the Defence Academy and an ability to maintain core relationships with university stakeholders. They will be committed to training, mentoring, and supporting the next generation of scholars in defence studies and associated disciplines, as well as excellent organisation skills. They will also be able to evidence leadership of people, programmes, and short courses, as well as contract management alongside financial awareness. It is also critical that the successful applicant can evidence a commitment to diversity, equality, and inclusivity with the ability to nurture a positive culture that supports the development of all staff and students.
