Lecturers in Corporate Law Grade 7/8 x2
Lancaster University School of Law is a vibrant, research-intensive Law School that strives to produce an outstanding educational experience for its students. We seek to appoint two Lecturers in Corporate Law to contribute across the School’s undergraduate corporate law modules and also to our LLM in International Commercial and Corporate Law. An ability to teach EU law would be an advantage but is not essential. As part of your role, you will be expected to supervise undergraduate and postgraduate students. You will also take on administrative duties and/or leadership roles as requested by the School. The post will be offered on either a Teaching & Research or Teaching & Scholarship basis.
For the Teaching & Research role, you will pursue impactful research and deliver publications of a high quality and at a level appropriate for a strong submission to the next Research Excellence Framework. For the Teaching & Scholarship role you will be required to develop a programme of personal scholarship in your chosen field of study, applying this to your teaching and leadership activities.
Lancaster University is a UK top 10 University (Complete University Guide 2026). The School of Law is consistently ranked in the top quartile of UK league tables and has an excellent track record in National Student Survey results (5th in the UK for student experience in the Complete University Guide 2025). The School has a vibrant teaching and research culture, with interdisciplinary collaborations, and a cohort of around 50 PhD students studying a range of different legal areas.
The School has over 45 academic members of staff and is committed to making a positive impact on people’s lives as well as academic excellence – over 80% of the School’s research was rated as being internationally excellent or world leading in the 2021 Research Assessment Exercise. We excelled in particular in relation to impact, being ranked at 6th in the UK on this measure. The School is also committed to innovation and excellence in teaching, learning and assessment and has a particular focus on employability and student skills development, not least through our award-winning Law Clinic and extra-curricular student activity including mooting, negotiation and mediation.
Staff in the School continue to benefit from Lancaster’s strong commitment at institutional and School level to opportunity for all and the provision of an environment that encourages and supports research and scholarship. The School is very proud of its friendly, co-operative ethos that promotes collaborative working and the sharing of research and teaching experiences. Both research and scholarship are supported through a structured staff development programme and the opportunity to partake in a School mentoring scheme.
