At the leading edge of dance, music, and musical theatre training, it provides specialist education of the highest quality, which reflects the increasingly collaborative world of artistic practice and supports the career development of students and professional performing artists.

We are seeking an experienced and dynamic Strength and Conditioning Lecturer to join the Dance Science & Health Team at Trinity Laban. The post holder will deliver Strength & Conditioning for Dancers within the MSc/MFA Dance Science programme, contributing to the Applications in Dance Science module. This specialist component focuses on evidence-based approaches to physical preparation for dancers, exploring how strength, conditioning, load management, and performance enhancement strategies can improve performance, support longevity, and reduce injury risk. The role involves integrating theoretical content with applied practical teaching across laboratory, gym, studio, and seminar spaces. This module runs from March to May and is delivered either as 5 weeks of 3-hour sessions or 6 weeks of 2.5-hour sessions. The post holder will also provide tutorial support and attend assessment presentations at the end of May.

The post holder may also supervise postgraduate research projects in strength and conditioning or applied performance science, supporting students through proposal development, Ethics Applications, and ongoing formative feedback. The role requires a collaborative, research-informed, and student-centred approach, contributing to the wider Dance Science & Health Team.

The post holder may also deliver Strength & Conditioning sessions and 1-to-1 coaching in the Conditioning Studio, supporting students across Dance, Music, and Musical Theatre. As part of the Dance Science & Health Team, the post holder may further contribute to the delivery of our in-house Fitness Screening and Health Tracking Programme.
