Lecturer in Counselling Psychology (HA3172-20-167)

This is an opportunity for a lecturer (teaching and research focused) with a specialism in counselling psychology to join a team with an established reputation in applied social, cultural and critical psychology. 

A PhD or Professional Doctorate in Counselling Psychology (or near completion) is essential, as well as up-to-date, sound knowledge of counselling and psychotherapy theory and practice. In addition, you will have a solid knowledge of general psychology as a basis for teaching on a variety of core BPS psychology curriculum areas, across our undergraduate and postgraduate psychology programmes. 

You must be eligible for membership of the British Psychological Society. 

This is permanent, full time post and job sharers are welcome to apply. We understand that you may wish to continue working in practice alongside this role, and the University has a variety of mechanisms that can support this. The start date would be as soon as mutually agreeable.

We recognise that there is a lot of uncertainty in the sector at present. University of Brighton is planning to deliver teaching via a blend of online and face-to-face modes in the autumn semester. Full support would be provided for delivering teaching in this way. We have a sociable and supportive staff group who meet regularly online, and this post will additionally be supported by the Psychology with Counselling Studies course team.

Informal enquiries can made to Dr Carl Walker at: c.j.walker@brighton.ac.uk
