ABOUT LIS The challenges humanity is facing aren't the stuff of dystopia, science fiction, or textbooks. They're happening today - and they've never been more complex and interconnected. Yet our higher education system is still structured in silos, leaving graduates ill-equipped to tackle the complexity that surrounds them. The next generation is now demanding to learn in a different way. That's where The London Interdisciplinary School comes in. LIS is a start-up university that equips learners with an interdisciplinary toolkit to tackle the complex, real-world problems of the 21st century. With a world-class faculty, five exceptional cohorts and close partnerships with global organisations, LIS is building a new type of education for those who want to shape the world, not just fit in.

ABOUT THE ROLE This is an opportunity to join the leadership of the UK's most exciting new progressional degree: the LIS MBA. The London Interdisciplinary School is creating an MBA to challenge the outdated curricula and purposes of traditional business and management education. The LIS MBA is a broad, intellectually rigorous degree preparing leaders to operate in complex systems. It focuses not on traditional business cases but on the global shifts that modern organisations have to grapple with, including the energy transition, artificial intelligence, ecosystem regeneration, public trust and the question of purpose. The programme will be taught by a range of internal and external faculty and we are looking to onboard an additional leader to work in tandem with the MBA Programme Director, Dr Amelia Peterson. You will be responsible for supporting the realisation of this programme, including contributing to teaching, management of the programme faculty, and communicating about the programme. This role is particularly aimed at applicants who are motivated by the goal of transforming business education, but may not have the experience or time to administer all aspects of an academic programme. You would have freedom to work with the Programme Director to identify which aspects of the programme you would be responsible for.

ASSOCIATE PROGRAMME DIRECTOR SCOPE The Associate Programme Director is designated by and reports to the Programme Director, supporting in the design, development, management and assessment of the Programme they have been designated to lead on. The formal responsibilities of the Associate Programme Director are limited to deputising for the Programme Director in their absence. Beyond this, the purpose of an Associate Programme Director is to complement the knowledge and experience of the Programme Director and provide additional steering and leadership for the programme. 10+ years experience, including significant management experience Evident relevant expertise in one of the specified knowledge fields (expertise may have been demonstrated in an organisational rather than academic context) Evident teaching skills (though may not have extensive teaching experience).
