What we offer

We are UAL

University of the Arts London is a vibrant world centre for innovation, drawing together six Colleges with international reputations in art, design, fashion, communication and performing arts.

Central Saint Martins is an international leader in arts and design education, with a proven track record of setting the pace in the creative and cultural sectors and, through the work of its staff and graduates, industry and society at large.

The new King’s Cross site provides the College with an innovative campus situated at the heart of one of central London’s most energetic redevelopment schemes which is acting as a new focus for the creative and cultural industries. With facilities designed around the creative needs of students, as well as to enable our teachers, researchers and practitioners to deliver outstanding work, the building creates an exciting environment for creativity and collaboration.

The College seeks to recruit an Associate Dean to guide and support the on-going development of the College’s taught courses, building on its traditions and enabling excellence. As members of the College’s senior management team and joining an established quality assurance and enhancement team, each will lead core portfolios, working with programme teams and with students as co-creators.
