The role will require academic leadership to coordinate resources and expertise across both Harper Adams and Keele universities, and to engage with key strategic partners and other relevant stakeholders across the sector. Opportunities to develop institutional and national collaborations and scholarship in their area of interest will be available, informing individual academic career development and the potential to shape the future direction of the School\xe2\x80\x99s research and engagement strategies across the veterinary sector.

Together, Keele and Harper Adams universities have 186 years of heritage in the animal and human health areas. Both institutions are recognised for their strengths in employability, student satisfaction and first-class teaching, and have a shared commitment to research in food security and sustainability. The joint Veterinary School provides students with the opportunity to take advantage of both institutions, with a common commitment to excellence and complementary skills.

The appointee will be expected to demonstrate a commitment to the School\xe2\x80\x99s aim of widening access to the veterinary profession for students from all backgrounds, and to embrace and engage in the School\xe2\x80\x99s culture of innovation in teaching and learning.

The appointee will be primarily based at either the Harper Adams University or Keele University campus, however the role will require regular travel between Harper Adams and Keele University for delivery of teaching and learning activities, collaboration with staff across the school, and for relevant administrative duties.
