The School of Geography and Sustainable Development is
seeking to appoint a Senior Lecturer or Reader in Physical Geography.* We are looking for candidates with excellent
research profiles and enthusiasm for research-led teaching to join our
Environmental Change Research Group. Candidates with backgrounds in Geography
and cognate disciplines are welcome to apply.
The successful candidate will hold a PhD in Physical
Geography, or a related area and have specialist research interests and teaching
expertise within Physical Geography and Environmental Change, which would broaden
the diversity of our Physical Geography research and teaching offering, while
complementing (rather than replicating) existing disciplinary strengths among
the current staffing of ECRG and supporting links within the wider School and
University.
The successful candidate will be expected to
contribute to teaching across a range of topics, to be active in research
publication that strengthens and shapes the School’s evolving strategic aims,
and be capable of teaching undergraduate and taught postgraduate students from
a wide range of backgrounds, and nurturing early career researchers. They
should also have familiarity and proven success with grant seeking processes in
relation to research councils and other national and international
sources.
*The relevant job description will be supplied,
on appointment.
Informal enquiries can be directed to: Prof Dan
Clayton, gsdhos@st-andrews.ac.uk, Prof William Austin (ECRG), wena@st-andrews.ac.uk, or Prof Nissa Finney, gsddor@st-andrews.ac.uk.
Applications
are particularly welcome from people from the Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic
(BAME) community and other protected characteristics who are under-represented
in Geography and Sustainable
Development posts
at the University.
