The School of Humanities is a
community of researchers, teachers, students, and support staff working
together on some of the most interesting and exciting issues in historical and
contemporary culture. Spanish is an integral part of the School and wider
University with popular degree programmes available at undergraduate level and
MPhil, MRes and PhD level as well as opportunities for multi-disciplinary
research in modern languages (French, Spanish, Italian and Mandarin).
We seek to appoint a Lecturer to join
our Spanish subject team, on a full-time open-ended
contract. Candidates will have a good honours degree and PhD (or equivalent)
in appropriate discipline and will have a native or near native level of fluency in both spoken and written

quality publications demonstrating standards of excellence in one or
more of the following research areas: gender studies, memory studies, cultural
studies or film studies. We are open to candidates working on any geographical
area of Hispanic Studies, though preference may be given to those with an
expertise in Contemporary Peninsular Spanish Culture. We particularly welcome
candidates whose research sits within the School’s broad research themes:
Heritage, Culture and Place; Communication, Language and Translation; or
Gender.
Candidates will demonstrate an
ability to secure research/KE
funding, including some experience of contributing to grant applications and a track
record in securing funding would be advantageous. You will also have relevant teaching experience at
undergraduate and postgraduate level, have the ability to teach cultural
classes at Honours level and Spanish language at all levels. You will also
have experience of teaching Spanish as a foreign language and providing timely
feedback to students.
A late
August or early September 2022 start date is desirable.
