About Regent’s

We’re expanding!

Part of Galileo Global Education (Europe’s largest private Higher Education group), Regent’s is one of the most cosmopolitan universities in the UK with around 130 nationalities represented on campus. As an organisation, we continue to go from strength to strength across every educational, financial and cultural measure.

Located in the heart of London’s Regent’s Park, we offer a premium, transformative education rich in global connections. Our mission is to cultivate globally minded graduates who bring purpose and passion to people and planet.

We are now transitioning to a School-based academic structure to support our continued growth, innovation, and excellence. The School of Law is central to this transformation.

The Role

We’re seeking a dynamic and visionary leader to establish and lead the new Regent’s Law School - someone who can redefine legal education in a fast-changing world and position us as a bold, distinctive force in this competitive market.

• Set the vision and ambition for Regent’s Law School, inspiring course teams to deliver a transformative legal education that challenges the incumbents and delivers real-world impact.
• Design and deliver innovative, practice-oriented programmes that disrupt traditional models. Your courses will be commercially successful, academically rigorous, and stand out for their relevance and quality.
• Be the public face of the School, confidently communicating our value proposition across platforms and to a wide range of stakeholders - from prospective students to industry leaders.
• Forge powerful partnerships with the legal profession including general counsel in global organisations based in London - securing placements, live projects, and high-profile guest speakers that enrich the student experience.
• Build and lead a high-calibre team of legal educators, cultivating a culture of excellence, collaboration, and innovation. You’ll lead by example, championing outstanding teaching and continuous improvement.

Interviews will likely be held on-campus w/c 10 November
