Module Lead - Materials Science (Contract)

Application Deadline: 11 April 2025

Department: Learning

Employment Type: Contract / Temp

Location: Remote

Compensation: £35.00 / hour

Description

Overview
You will plan, design, deliver, create content and assess for Tiro’s Level 4 Applied Materials programme TAM4101, TAM4102, TAM5102 modules and plan, design and create content for our Laboratory Technician industrial technical module for materials.

The module lead should stimulate curiosity and enthusiasm for the module to provide a transformational learning experience for students.  

Much of the module lead’s role is about academic leadership, organisation and management. As a module lead, you’re expected to provide an inclusive and friendly learning environment that respects individual learners and diverse learning communities.  

Acknowledging the wider context in which the module operates, the module lead should work closely with Tiro’s Curriculum Lead and the Digital Education team as well as other internal teams (learning/operations) and external partners (alumni/employers/awarding bodies).  

The module lead may introduce themselves as the key contact for learners on the module and will share the principles of partnership working with students; ensuring that staff and students understand each other’s roles, responsibilities and expectations.

Delivering phenomenal learning experiences 
  You’ll deliver a variety of specialist modules/content/materials/assessments that are learner-centric, stretching and delivered in live and asynchronous sessions via digital platforms, embedding your subject specialist knowledge to develop highly competent Scientists and Technologists. 
 You’ll inspire and engage learners so attendance to sessions is something to look forward to. 
 You’ll provide rich feedback on assessments, always making things relevant to the workplace context and experiences that champion and grow your learners’ determination to succeed – so learners know where they are and how to realise their ambitions.
  Ensure learners progress through their programme
 
You’ll anticipate, spot and address issues/challenges to nip them in the bud to keep learners progressing with their learning. Being proactive and pacey, you’ll tenaciously drive the progress of your learners, keeping them on track to complete their learning within agreed timelines. 

As you deliver a module of learning within your subject specialism, your colleagues will be coaching and supporting learners to transfer that learning back into the workplace. As such you’ll be an exceptional communicator - providing up to date reports, updating systems, and attending meetings to ensure key stakeholders can support and feedback to learners.
