About the Role

An exciting opportunity has arisen to work on a temporary fixed term basis as an Academic and Professional Tutor with the Doctorate in Applied Educational Psychology (DAEP) at the University of Nottingham.

Induction and mentoring will be provided for each aspect of the role.

The Nottingham programme is part of the School of Psychology with a reputation for high-quality teaching and world-leading research and with an established reputation for training educational psychologists. Successful candidates will join a forward-thinking, creative, and collaborative team, and contribute to the full range of the team’s work.

Candidates must be fully qualified educational psychologists with a proven track record of effective professional practice, a good knowledge of current issues in EP training, and a demonstrable ability to carry out senior management responsibilities. Applicants must also be registered with the HCPC as a Practitioner Educational Psychologist. In addition, it would be desirable for applicants to possess a Doctoral qualification in Educational Psychology.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
