About you

As a professional industry practitioner, you will hold a relevant degree and will be able to demonstrate significant creative success and specialist knowledge in illustration or the connected specialisms of digital imaging, graphic design or visual communication. Your work will consider how these areas of practice can impact image making within a fashion industry context with reference to adjacent fields such as fine art, gaming or visual communication. Your role will help shape students to become the next generation of digital and traditional artists working across platforms and emerging software, exploring still, moving, 2D and 3D visuals.

You will be forward thinking and visionary, with an understanding of the changing demands of the fashion media industry and a contemporary approach to image making. Your portfolio of work will question the status quo and you will be a significant contributor to advancing your area of expertise.

A relevant postgraduate qualification will be an advantage, while industry experience is essential.

Experience in higher education is desirable.

To equip generation after generation for success, we rely on an outstanding academic team who are as imaginative, forward thinking and visionary, as they are informed: people with hands on experience of their industry and a keen eye on the future.
