Founded in 1837, the Royal College of Art is the world’s largest community of postgraduate art and design students. It is also the oldest art and design university in continuous operation and has been ranked as the world’s number one art and design university for a remarkable nine consecutive years (QS World Subject Rankings 2015–23).
The RCA is research-led and recognised in the UK-wide Research Excellence Framework (REF) as the UK’s most research-intensive institution – with an increased proportion of the College’s outputs classed as ‘internationally excellent’ and ‘world-leading’ in the most recent REF assessment of 2022. Studying at the RCA is the starting point for the world’s creative leaders. With more than 20,000 RCA alumni across the globe, the RCA’s graduates form a unique international network of artists, designers, creators and innovators. Every year, RCA alumni are recognised as leaders in their fields, making national and international headlines for their work, which... shapes the world in which we live. The College’s graduate start-up incubator, InnovationRCA, is one of the most successful in the UK, with a high proportion of start-up founders who are women and a high ‘survival’ percentage after five years of trading.
Over 2,700 students are spread across four schools, studying at Graduate Diploma, MA, MPhil, MRes and PhD levels, with plans for this to rise to 3,300 by 2027. The College’s mix of professionalism and creative freedom, together with its renowned academic community and rigorous academic framework, provides the ecosystem in which students flourish and achieve their highest potential. In 2023, the College’s MArch, MFA, MDes and MEd qualifications and a redesigned MRes will give students the chance to further develop new skills and improve career prospects.
The RCA’s academic faculty bring world-leading expertise and industry knowledge to the tutorial-based model of teaching. There is a core academic and research workforce of 230 FTE, supported by around 170 Associate Lecturers and a wide range of Guest Lecturers who bring ‘live industry’ experience into the taught curriculum.
The RCA is seeking to appoint a new President and Vice-Chancellor to lead this prestigious organisation. They will lead the academic community, oversee management of the College, and represent the College externally. The President and Vice-Chancellor is the academic and administrative head of the College, formally head of all academic and non-academic staff. The post is accountable to the College’s Council for the direction and management of the organisation and leadership of the staff.
Qualified candidates should bring a track record of exceptional leadership in complex organisations. The successful candidate will have clear strategic vision, team leadership qualities, experience in leading through uncertain times, and the ability to balance active participation in internal academic governance with extensive external engagement. While candidates need not be academics, they must be able to demonstrate a solid understanding of the culture of academic institutions and of creative practice.
The successful candidate may come from academia, from the museum world, from the tech community, from commercial design or from further afield. An understanding of the creative industries and the importance of innovative art and design education is imperative.
The RCA is committed to celebrating diversity, eliminating discrimination and promoting equality of opportunity. We welcome applications from all candidates.
