Building on Loughborough’s leadership in engineering, construction, and design innovation, we’re seeking experts in:

Digital twins

Explore digital-first engineering approaches, with applications in cyber-physical systems, construction, advanced manufacturing and infrastructure management.

Digital construction methods

Enhance our expertise in digital design and fabrication, BIM, off-site construction and automation.

Digital and high value manufacturing processes

Advanced and additive manufacturing, condition monitoring and digital validation of products and processes: robotics and autonomous systems through-life engineering tools; materials science of novel manufacturing processes; novel processing methods for functional and structural ceramics.

Sports technology

Develop technologies to enhance the experience, performance and safety of those engaging in sport, including intelligent textiles and wearable technologies.

We’re exploring how technology, education, design, culture and society can collectively contribute to improving lives from beginning to end.

Building Digital Communities

Who we’re looking for

Superstar researchers

Established and emerging research leaders with strong research outputs and funding success.

Exceptional research teams and interdisciplinary groups

Collaborative groups who can come together in a new institutional home.

Top postdoctoral researchers and early-career academics

Talented researchers seeking long-term career investment and stability.

Current opportunities

We are currently recruiting for Senior Lecturers and Lecturers across three focus areas.
