We welcome applications from candidates whose background, experience and identity broadens and enhances the diversity of our existing team. Our administrative team recognises that what helps us succeed is the different ideas and experiences of colleagues across our School, who come from a mix of cultures and backgrounds. We would especially welcome applications from members of groups who are currently under-represented in the School, particularly Black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates.

Unfortunately, we cannot accept applications from current registered students within the School of English because of the potential access to sensitive and confidential information.
