STF Bank - Fashion Design and Fashion Marketing

We are seeking passionate and industry-informed bank Sessional Teaching Fellows to support teaching and student learning across our Fashion courses. We currently have opportunities available in both Fashion Design and Fashion Marketing.

Applicants should have relevant professional and/or academic experience in their specialist area, alongside the ability to deliver engaging teaching, assessment, and student support within a Higher Education environment. Candidates will be confident working independently, managing their own workload, and contributing to the development of students' academic, creative, technical, and professional skills.

For the Fashion Design opportunity, we are particularly interested in candidates with expertise in pattern cutting, garment development, garment construction, and contemporary fashion design practices. Experience with digital pattern cutting, 3D garment visualisation, and software such as CLO3D and Adobe Creative Suite would be advantageous.

For the Fashion Marketing opportunity, we welcome applications from individuals with expertise in areas such as fashion marketing communications, branding, consumer behaviour, digital marketing, content creation, trend forecasting, retail, and strategic marketing, supported by current industry knowledge and experience.

Experience of teaching, assessment, and providing constructive feedback within Higher Education is essential for both roles.

The assessment process consists of a micro-teach that will take place in the morning followed by interviews in the afternoon. You will prepare and deliver a micro-teach (workshop) to a small group. Please note this is a two-stage process and you must pass the micro-teach assessment to progress to the interview stage.
