Welcome

Message from Professor Amanda Broderick

Now is the ideal time to be joining the University of East London. We have emerged from the Covid-19 pandemic fitter, stronger and more robust. With an even greater appetite to accelerate inclusive talent by realising potential, wherever and whenever it is found, and to advance knowledge & innovation to help people and planet.

As we enter the era of Industry 5.0, we understand the need to think more holistically about what and how we teach our students and create impact in and for the communities we serve. Through our transformative 10-year strategy – Vision 2028 – we are committed to becoming the UK’s leading careers- first institution, pioneering future careers and sustainable innovation for a rapidly changing world.

All our students, at every level, have access to our award-winning ‘professional fitness and mental wealth’ programme of emotional, social, physical & cultural intelligence and digital proficiency development. Other enhanced opportunities include the Career Passport alongside our dedicated Career Zones to ensure we bring students, industry and career specialists closer together. And all this is underpinned by our innovative Technology Enhanced Active-Learning framework (TEAL 2028) that enhances student engagement wherever they are.

And our ambitions don’t rest there. Our world-leading impact in HealthTech and GreenTech Is expanded by the launch of our new Centre of FinTech, together with the underpinning cutting-edge education, research and enterprise. This cross-collaboration between Schools aims to widen the talent pipeline, as well as offer research, development and policy to our industry partners and neighbours. With the Elizabeth Line opening, we are now even closer to our business partners in Canary Wharf and the City.

The capital is moving east and the University, the only HE institution in London’s Royal Docks Enterprise Zone, is primed to take advantage including leading on the carbon zero goal for the Docks. Our current £200 million infrastructure investment programme is only one sign of this far-reaching transformation.

The significant investment into new staff in the Royal Docks School of Business & Law is an exciting and valuable opportunity for ambitious and enthusiastic professionals, hungry to contribute to the University’s transformation and to make a genuine and positive difference in the communities we serve. I am looking forward to receiving your application.
