Your primary mission is to support the development of students across year 1 in our bachelor’s programme. Your multifaceted role involves coordinating with the team to monitor student progress and project groups, co-creating course content, facilitating workshops, and providing constructive feedback and feedforward to students. Additionally, you will support the lecturing team in data collection and project assessments.

Breda University of Applied Sciences (BUas) believes in an interconnected world which is ever changing. Within this dynamic, international environment we empower young professionals on their journey to shape a better world. Students, lecturers and researchers work together in our national and international learning communities on meaningful knowledge, research and projects alongside global industry professionals.

• Moving from abroad to Breda in the Netherlands? We provide support and financial compensation for relocation and settling in the Netherlands. Dutch tax authorities may offer tax reductions to applicants from abroad, making tax rates comparable to those in the UK and US.

Lecturer in Project Logistics

About this job
As a lecturer in Project Logistics (0.4FTE), you will guide students in their development. You will also be involved in developing the curriculum within the Academy for Built Environment & Logistics (ABEL) at Breda University of Applied Sciences (BUas). You are familiar with the latest developments in logistics, leisure and events, as well as the challenges facing the industry and its companies. You can use this knowledge to provide inspiring education for our students, playing an important role in the further development of our Project Logistics study pathway. In addition, you will supervise students during their work placements or graduation projects and encourage students to consider the options available to them during their studies and after graduation.

In our educational vision, collaborative learning takes centre stage. Rather than traditional lectures, we prioritise continuous interaction with students – and whenever possible, with industry partners as well. Our students work on different types of challenges in small-scale learning communities. As a lecturer, you will play a key role in connecting these challenges, students, industry, and professional practice to create meaningful learning experiences. You are not expected to have all the answers, but to guide students in discovering them. In this role, you will also be learning something new every day.

At BUas, we operate on a team-based working principle where responsibilities and authority are assigned to the teams within the academy. This approach leaves plenty of room for your own input and for you to help shape the future of education. Are you ready to create meaningful experiences?

• You have the option to work partly from home, which can help improve your work-life balance;
• You will build an attractive pension through the ABP pension fund;
• Working at BUas means always striving for ‘the plus’. BUas aims to be more than just a university of applied sciences, continuously focusing on development and creating meaningful experiences;
• You will be working in a close-knit team of lecturers with knowledge and experience of logistics and supply chain management;
• Lines of communication within our academy are short and staff are easily contactable. At the Academy for Built Environment & Logistics (ABEL), we work and learn in close cooperation, whether you are a student, lecturer, or manager;
• Working at ABEL also provides exposure to other interesting knowledge areas within Built Environment and Logistics;
• You will be working at our modern, sustainable and high-tech campus within a vibrant, creative and dynamic environment near the city centre of Breda.

What do we ask of you?

• You have an academic level of professional and intellectual ability, as well as a relevant master’s degree, or you are willing to obtain one;
• You ideally have experience in the field of logistics, operational processes, or the leisure and events industry (crowd management, mobility, safety);
• You are passionate about the field and you would like to share this passion with our students and colleagues. You have creative and fresh ideas on how to share your information and knowledge;
