In 2021, the UWS School of Business and Creative
Industries is continuing to make a significant investment in academic
posts to support its strategic development and to help further position
the School as a key player locally, nationally and internationally. We

welcoming, collegial team within a challenging but supportive
environment.
We are looking for individuals who are passionate
about their subject and who can contribute to the success and growth of
the Accounting subject portfolio. You will also contribute to the
commercial opportunities for the Division.
This post will give individuals the opportunity to
develop further their academic career and has arisen due to the success
of our undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral programmes in the
Accounting, Finance, and Law Division. You will have the opportunity to
carry out teaching, research, enterprise and knowledge exchange
activities.
You will have an internationally recognised
accountancy qualification and will have successfully completed
appropriate academic qualifications. An interest in the digital
developments within the profession will be especially welcome. You

projects and participate in learning and knowledge exchange projects in
partnership with external stakeholders.
You will be joining us at a very exciting time in
our development and will become part of a dedicated team who offer
exceptional support and guidance to our students. You will have
opportunities to help build the reputation and profile of our School as a
leading contributor to the economic and social development of the
communities in which we work.
