What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can teach and mentor while owning programme delivery - supporting teams, collaborating with stakeholders, and improving student outcomes through clear planning, strong administration, and innovative learning materials.

I’m an administratively strong Arts, Humanities and Languages Lecturer with proven expertise in team leadership and programme/project management. Since February 2023, I’ve developed, implemented, and evaluated performance through cross-functional assessments to deliver high-quality outputs and detailed, constructive feedback to students.

I work across committees with senior stakeholders to meet deadlines, agree priorities, update policies, and improve how the organisation runs. I also manage reporting and coordination across several projects—setting clear deadlines and milestones, tracking progress, and fixing issues to keep everything on time.

I’m committed to fostering collaborative environments and advancing organisational goals through innovative learning materials and standard processes. I continually invest in my professional development to strengthen my presentation and delivery skills as best practices evolve.
