Our Edtech Enablement team is where that work meets faculty: we help academics put EdTech to work in their teaching, and we tell the story of what they achieve with it.
Key Highlights of the Role:
- Enable Faculty to Teach with AI: Design and run the workshops, clinics and onboarding that take academics from curiosity to confident, compliant practice.
- Shape How Courses Are Designed: Consult with faculty and course teams on applying AI to course design, assessment and learning content – and on where it does not belong.
- Build and Showcase AI Exemplars: Create your own AI-built learning assets, prompt workflows and use cases, and present them at showcases, communities of practice and leadership briefings.
Primary Duties:
- Faculty EdTech Enablement & Training: Design and deliver a recurring programme of hands‑on workshops, clinics and onboarding sessions, plus the guides, prompt libraries and recorded demonstrations that let faculty keep learning on their own.
- AI‑Enhanced Learning Design Consultancy: Advise faculty and course teams on applying AI to course design, assessment design and learning content, within University academic integrity and data protection guidelines.
- AI Creation & Showcase: Build demonstrable AI‑generated and AI‑assisted learning assets, prompt workflows and use cases, and curate them into a library of exemplars and success stories you present across the University.
- Tool Evaluation & Governance‑Aligned Adoption: Evaluate and pilot emerging EdTech and AI tools, translate University policy into practical guardrails faculty can follow, and feed needs back to platform owners and vendors.
- Communications & Engagement: Plan and execute communications that build awareness and uptake of your programmes and of university‑wide teaching and learning initiatives, working with Corporate Communications and school‑level leads.
- Measurement & Continuous Improvement: Track participation, adoption, capability uplift and sentiment; report on impact; and use what you learn to sharpen the next cycle of enablement.

Shortlisted candidates will be asked to walk us through something they have built with AI.
- Training & Facilitation: Proven experience designing and delivering training, workshops or onboarding to academic or professional audiences, with confident presentation and demonstration skills.
- Consultancy & Learning Design: Experience advising educators or subject matter experts on course, assessment or content design, and translating pedagogical needs into practical technology solutions.
