About School of Coding & AI

Established in 2017, School of Coding & AI has grown into one of the UK's leading providers of technology and digital education. We work with over 150 schools, colleges and businesses, supporting thousands of children and adults every month across Coding, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, STEM and Business.

We have recently partnered with several universities to launch our first Higher Education Institute, creating exciting opportunities to expand our courses and develop the next generation of industry-ready graduates.

We're an ambitious, fast-growing organisation where new ideas are encouraged, collaboration matters and our students always come first.

About the role

We're looking for a passionate and creative Games Design Lecturer to join our growing Higher Education team in Birmingham.

This is an exciting opportunity to help shape and deliver our Games Design provision, bringing your industry knowledge and creative expertise into the classroom. You'll play an important role in developing learners' technical abilities, encouraging creative thinking and helping students turn their ideas into practical skills.

Whether you're an experienced lecturer or a Games Design professional looking to move into education, we'd love to hear from you.

What you'll be doing

Teaching & Learning

  • Deliver engaging and practical Games Design sessions to Higher Education learners.
  • Teach across key areas including Games Art, digital graphics, 3D design, animation and interactive media.
  • Create an inclusive learning environment that encourages creativity, experimentation and independent thinking.
  • Use industry-standard software such as Maya, Substance Painter and Unreal Engine to develop learners' practical skills.

Assessment & Student Development

  • Develop and update teaching materials, assignments and assessments in line with curriculum requirements.
  • Mark and moderate student work, providing constructive feedback that supports progression.
  • Monitor attendance, achievement and academic progress, maintaining accurate student records.
  • Provide academic and pastoral support, helping learners overcome challenges and reach their potential.

Quality & Collaboration

  • Contribute to course development, quality assurance and standardisation activities.
  • Keep teaching content relevant to current games industry practices and emerging technologies.
  • Work collaboratively with colleagues and industry partners to continually improve the student experience.
  • Support occasional evening or weekend events and open days, agreed in advance.

Requirements

What we're looking for

We're interested in people who combine creative ability with strong technical knowledge and a genuine passion for helping others learn.

  • A minimum Level 3 qualification in a relevant Games Design or Games Art subject.
  • At least one year of teaching experience in Higher Education or a similar learning environment, or relevant industry experience alongside the ability to transition into teaching.
  • Knowledge and practical experience of industry software, including Maya, Substance Painter and Unreal Engine.
  • A recognised teaching qualification or willingness to work towards one.

  • Experience teaching games development, 3D design, animation, digital graphics or interactive media.
  • Experience developing modules, assessments and learning materials.

  • Excellent organisation and time management.
  • A student-first approach, balancing encouragement with high expectations.
  • A creative, practical and solutions-focused mindset.
  • The ability to work collaboratively in a growing and fast-paced environment.

Don't come from a traditional teaching background? That's okay. We welcome applications from experienced Games Design professionals who are ready to bring their industry expertise into education and develop their teaching skills.

Benefits

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
