Worcester College proposes to appoint a Fellow and Tutor in English with effect from 1 October 2008, or as soon as possible thereafter. The Fellowship will be held in conjunction with a University Lectureship (CUF) in the Faculty of English. The combined College and University salary is currently on a scale up to £52,628 a year, plus the allowances which accompany a Fellowship at Worcester College (up to £7,387 a year).
The College and University seek to appoint a specialist in the area of Old and Middle English up to 1550, who would be required to teach for the College in relevant courses in English and its Joint Schools, to give lectures and to undertake graduate teaching and supervision for the Faculty. The appointee will also be expected to enhance an already active Faculty and College research environment.
Further particulars covering both the College and the University posts, and the application and selection procedures, which all potential candidates should consult before applying, may be obtained from the Academic Registrar, Worcester College, Oxford, OX1 2HB (tel. 01865 278342, e-mail jane.gover@worc.ox.ac.uk), or from the notices section of the College's website at http://www.worc.ox.ac.uk/. The closing date for receipt of applications is 17 March 2008.
Worcester College and the University of Oxford are equal opportunities employers.
