Job Requirements/Description
At Sheffield Hallam University, our philosophy of “Knowledge Applied” shapes everything we do. We are passionate about delivering an outstanding student experience through hands-on, project-based learning, ensuring our graduates develop the skills, confidence and industry mindset needed to tackle real-world engineering challenges.
We are seeking an ambitious, inspirational and forward-thinking Lecturer in Thermofluids (Computational Fluid Dynamics) to join our thriving Mechanical Engineering team. This is an exciting opportunity to influence the next generation of engineers while contributing to innovative research and industry engagement in one of the UK's most applied and student-focused engineering environments. You will play a pivotal role in delivering engaging, inclusive and research-informed teaching across thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, heat transfer and, most notably, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Working with industry-standard simulation and modelling tools, you will help students develop advanced analytical, modelling and digital engineering skills that are highly sought after by employers.
Beyond teaching, you will have the opportunity to shape and enhance our curriculum, supervise student projects, and contribute to an exciting portfolio of applied research, innovation and knowledge exchange activities. We are particularly interested in candidates who are passionate about using CFD and digital engineering technologies to address complex challenges in fluid flow, thermal management, sustainable energy systems, and engineering design.
Whether you are an established academic looking to advance your career or an experienced industry professional seeking to make an impact in higher education, you will find a supportive and collaborative environment where your ideas, expertise and ambitions can flourish.
Join us and help shape future engineers, drive innovation, and contribute to engineering solutions that make a real difference to industry and society.
We offer a diverse range of benefits and opportunities to pursue a rewarding and fulfilling career in a supportive environment.
Should you be enrolled into TPS, each year you will earn a secure pension benefit of 1/57th of your salary and the University will pay pension contributions towards the cost of this pension (currently worth about 29% of your salary). For a salary of £42,000, for example, the University would pay just over £12,000 in the first year of your employment and you would earn a pension of £737 p.a. for that year (payable from your State Pension Age).

If you’re a member of the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) directly before joining us, you can choose to remain in USS instead.
The University may be able to sponsor the employment of international applicants in this role; this will depend on a number of factors specific to the individual applicant. You are advised to assess your eligibility against the criteria set out in the UKVI Guidance before applying.
We welcome applications for job-share, part-time and flexible working arrangements.
