Recruitment

The South West College operates in four campuses in Cookstown, Dungannon, Enniskillen and Omagh and, of the six new area-based colleges, it is the smallest in size, but covers the largest geographical area of counties Tyrone and Fermanagh.

We work in partnership, to provide inclusive learning opportunities, to enrich lives, support business and promote community, economic and social wellbeing.

Our four key values – Respectful, Accountable, Engaging, and Committed and as an employer our culture is based on these. These values create a positive and committed workplace which enables all staff to deliver excellence.

Throughout each year opportunities exist across academic and support roles.

One of our main recruitment exercises each year is our Part-Time Lecturing register advertised in May for all subject areas required each year and then, when needed, smaller registers are advertised throughout the year.

The part-time lecturing register enables South West College to provide additional cover to support current Lecturing staff and is used for temporary vacancies e.g. to cover additional modules or staff absences. Any part-time lecturer will teach subjects to standards and quality defined by the College and, where applicable the Awarding Body.

The register offers professionals the chance to pass on experience within their chosen area of expertise on an ad-hoc temporary basis via morning, afternoon and evening classes.

Within this vacancy there is a list of subject areas and the criteria needed to teach and also a job description.

Each member of staff has an important role to play in ensuring that our students and business clients get the very best of quality education.
