The Department of English is looking to appoint a Lecturer in English and Creative Writing to commence in April 2025.
English is a small department dedicated to providing the best academic and pastoral support to our students at undergraduate and postgraduate level.
We are seeking a lecturer to augment our current expertise in Early Modern, Victorian, and Contemporary literature. While we are flexible with period, our ideal candidate would be confident teaching poetry, theory, gender, and race, to cover such modules as Reading Gender, Rewriting Empire, Eras of English, and Fiction and Theory.
Candidates with experience of teaching creative writing at UG and PG will have an advantage.
There will also be scope to introduce a specialist subject module in the candidate’s area of research.
At MA level, our students are all undertaking research degrees, and our new colleague would be expected to supervise in areas related to their area of expertise. The role will also involve contributing to the administration of the programme and undertaking other relevant duties in support of the programme and faculty.
Duties will involve delivering current content at BA and MA levels and assisting the team with developing innovative new delivery methods, programmes and modules.
Salary: £32,587 (Lecturer A)/ Full-time (35 hours)
