Associate Lecturer – Textiles (0.5 FTE, Fixed Term to end August 26)

The Royal College of Art is seeking an inspiring and committed Associate Lecturer to join our dynamic Textiles Programme on a 0.5 FTE fixed-term contract until the end of August.

The Textiles Programme sits within the School of Design and is home to a vibrant community of 80+ MA (RCA) students and postgraduate researchers. Our philosophy embraces the complexity of textiles as a multi-faceted, evolving discipline. We champion a 21st-century vision of textile practice — one informed by material thinking, critical research, sustainability, emerging technologies, and new global contexts.

We are looking for a practitioner-educator who brings deep subject expertise and contemporary industry insight to enrich our postgraduate environment. As an Associate Lecturer, you will contribute high-quality teaching that complements and enhances the core delivery of the Programme. You will support students through individual tutorials, group teaching, critiques and assessment, fostering an inclusive and intellectually rigorous learning culture.

You will help students connect experimental practice with professional realities, contributing up-to-date knowledge of industry contexts and emerging directions in textiles. The Programme is actively developing relationships with industry and commercial partners, supporting live projects, knowledge exchange and new forms of collaboration. Exhibition, publication and dissemination activities are also expanding to reflect our forward-thinking ethos.

This role requires someone who is confident teaching at postgraduate level, able to work across disciplines, and committed to nurturing diverse creative voices. You will contribute to curriculum development, assessment, student feedback, and academic citizenship, participating in programme planning, committees, and selected field trips where appropriate.

Essential requirements include:

A First Degree in a relevant discipline.

Demonstrable experience in textiles and/or textiles-related professional practice.

Experience of one-to-one and group teaching, including online and blended delivery.

A strong commitment to high-quality teaching and an inclusive, supportive learning environment.

Awareness of contemporary industry contexts relevant to textiles practice.

Commitment to equality, diversity and ongoing professional development.

A Masters degree and experience supervising or teaching at Masters level are desirable.

This is an exciting opportunity to shape and support a new generation of textile practitioners at a world-leading postgraduate institution, contributing your expertise to a programme that is redefining the future of textiles.

Closing for applications at 11.59pm on 3rd March 2026

Interviews are expected to take place 10th March 2026
