Nathan Roberts
Lecturer, Digital Fashion Marketing and Fashion Business
I am a multidisciplinary fashion educator and marketing professional with over a decade of experience in the global fashion industry, specialising in the development and delivery of campaigns with international reach and impact. My expertise spans design, styling, creative production, brand marketing and digital marketing management, informed by experience across both the retail and wider fashion sectors. I have held roles including Product Coordinator, Senior Marketing Executive, Menswear Lead and Technology Partnerships Lead, which provide a strong foundation for my teaching and engagement with contemporary industry practice.
My academic work also explores co curricular work experience projects, with a focus on enhancing student engagement and employability through practice based learning. I advocate for inclusive approaches to fashion education that challenge established stereotypes and support students in redefining identity, creative expression and career development. I place particular emphasis on experiential learning and collaborative exploration, encouraging students to engage with social and cultural issues in innovative and meaningful ways throughout their studies.
Additional roles include :
EDI Community and Belonging Coordinator
RISE MFI Liaison.
