Job description

Institution: University of Manchester - University Centre for Academic English

Job Type: Fixed Term

Location: Manchester

We appreciate that Pre-sessional courses are demanding, but we also think they should be rewarding. In that spirit, we want to work with tutors who will thrive in this environment. In return, we will try to create a workplace where the ambitious and enthusiastic develop and ultimately benefit from their experience with us.

You will receive a competitive salary, a fully paid induction programme and holiday pay. Those teaching our campus-based course and living over 30 miles away from the University will also have the option of free, self-catering University accommodation close to the campus and city centre. Eligible tutors can also join the University’s Pension Scheme.

We do recognise you will come with your own personality and set of skills, and we believe that you will use these to help our students succeed. You will bring your expertise in teaching EAP to the classroom and will happily share this with colleagues. You will work in a hard-working and skilled teaching team and will be supported by like-minded colleagues. As a Centre, we value collaboration, quality teaching and a positive student experience.

Our 6-week Pre-sessional is planned to be on campus and online. Preference will be given to tutors who are able to teach both. All tutors must have the right to work in the UK and be based in the UK for the duration of their contract.

Contract Type:
Fixed Term, Full Time

Course Dates:
22nd July – 5th September 2025

These dates are inclusive of a 4-day fully paid induction programme when we will guide and support you through the course materials and assessment. This induction is compulsory and forms part of the offered contract.

English Summer Programme Tutors:
Whilst we are delighted that many of our Pre-sessional tutors return to work with us each year, this limits the number of roles available for suitable Pre-sessional candidates on this year’s courses. We are also seeking excellent General English tutors for our growing English Summer Programme (ESP) and will be contacting candidates who stand out as a particularly good fit for this Programme. If you would also be interested in teaching on ESP, please let us know when filling in the supporting information section of your application.

Salary: £37,174 – £45,413 per annum, dependent on relevant experience.
