Senior Lecturer in Sound Recording (Teaching Track)

We seek an outstanding, self-motivated Senior Lecturer (teaching track) to contribute to the education of exceptional future audio engineers and musicians on the BMus/BSc Music and Sound Recording (Tonmeister) programme in Music and Media at the University of Surrey.

The successful applicant will teach and lead modules related to the practical recording aspects of the prestigious Tonmeister undergraduate programme, though depending on the successful applicant's profile this may include some teaching on the engineering modules. In addition, the successful applicant will: organise and develop modules at undergraduate level; contribute to student recruitment; and conduct personal tutorials with students. You will therefore have a significant track record of professional work in the music recording industry and of high-quality teaching in sound recording and audio engineering. You will also have excellent administrative and organisation skills, and an ability to clearly explain topics related to audio engineering.

You will be joining a supportive and varied team of colleagues drawn from both academic and respected industry backgrounds. The programme has a small cohort of high-quality students, enabling a highly collegiate environment between staff and students. Our students are highly motivated and have a strong background in music, mathematics and physics.

Running since 1970, the Tonmeister programme is unique in the way that it combines study of audio engineering, music, and practical sound recording. It has produced a stream of successful alumni, including winners of Oscars, Grammys, EMMYs, BAFTAs, and the Mercury Prize. Our graduates work across a wide cross-section of the audio industry, from product design to film music composition, and this alumnus network enables us to call upon current industry expertise in many areas. Alumni are very keen to give something back to the programme, and our reunions are excellent networking opportunities. The programme includes a Professional Training Year, and we have regular placements with many high-profile companies including AIR Studios, Focusrite/Novation and Sky Post-Production.

The facilities available in Music and Media for teaching and research include: 3 recording studios containing high quality equipment including consoles from Studer and AMS-Neve; over 120 microphones for recording and technical measurement; an ITU-R BS 1116 standard listening room containing a 30-loudspeaker reproduction system; and a range of test and measurement hardware and software. Music and Media is home to the Moog Sound Lab UK, and benefits from many links with the audio, video and computer games industries. The University is has recently invested nearly £3m in new and updated facilities, including a new film and television production studio, new computing labs, and an electronics laboratory.

Potential applicants are encouraged to contact Dr. Russell Mason ( [e-mail] ) for an informal discussion about the role.
