Applicants should demonstrate a high standard of research achievement and potential, commensurate with their career stage, together with the ability to inspire and engage students through tutorials, classes, lectures, and supervision. Candidates should also demonstrate a commitment to fostering an inclusive and supportive academic environment and promoting equality, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace.

The appointments are for five years in the first instance, with the expectation of reappointment until retirement following a successful review.

The Department and Colleges offer an outstanding research and teaching environment together with an attractive financial package.
