Description
Bath Spa U Ltd is seeking to appoint a Lecturer in English for Academic Purposes (EAP) to join the English Language Unit.
The postholder will contribute to the delivery of high-quality English language provision, while supporting curriculum development, English language assessment, quality assurance, and the University’s embedded academic language strategy. The role combines high-quality teaching with contribution to assessment, partnership working, and the enhancement of English language provision across the University.
The role is based at the London Canary Wharf campus but will also support staff and students across other teaching sites. Travel between sites will therefore be required.

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.
