Summary
Director of Curriculum
Full time: 35 hours per week
Responsible to: The School Director
Salary: In the region of £75,000 p/a
Permanent role
Location: National Film & Television School, Beaconsfield
For over 50 years, the National Film and Television School (NFTS) has developed some of Britain and the world’s leading creative talent. Widely regarded as the UK’s top school of its kind and among the very best internationally, the NFTS has been recognised with both a BAFTA for Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema and the Queen’s Anniversary Prize for Higher and Further Education.
The School’s philosophy of ‘learning by doing’ drives the most comprehensive range of behind-the-camera courses of any film school worldwide. Always evolving to meet industry needs, recent additions such as Intimacy Coordination, AI, new Apprenticeships and the Creator Incubator equip students to thrive across an expanding spectrum of genres and mediums.
We are seeking an outstanding Director of Curriculum to lead and manage the delivery and enhancement of our programmes. Reporting to the School Director and, as part of the Management Team, you will shape the future of our curriculum and ensure the highest standards of teaching and student experience.
This is not a teaching role. The emphasis is on leadership and problem-solving: from developing new courses and embedding cutting-edge industry practice, to supporting Course Leaders and addressing student or course-related issues when required.
The successful candidate will bring substantial Higher Education experience, proven leadership in teaching and learning, and a passion for film, television and/or games. Exceptional communication skills and the ability to influence at every level are essential. This is a unique opportunity to make a lasting impact at one of the world’s most celebrated film, television and games schools.

At the NFTS, people are at the heart of what we do. We’re an inclusive employer and are committed to equality of opportunity, and building a culturally diverse workforce. We are committed to being an anti-racist organization and to increasing our representation of staff from Black, Asian and minority ethnic communities. We strongly encourage applications from all backgrounds.
