Senior Professional Tutor in Education (SEND) - Ref: 2APGC103
This role will be fixed term/limited duration for 12 months in the first instance and may become permanent in the future depending on student numbers. However, it is important that colleagues are aware that unfortunately there is no guarantee that the roles will become permanent. As such, applicants should understand their employment with the University may be at risk at the end of the 12 month period if the work is no longer required (due to insufficient student numbers or another substantial reason) or if they do not secure an alternative permanent role at the University within this period. The University would consider if student numbers were sufficiently strong to justify the positions becoming open-ended at that point.
