Collegiality is central to the functioning of the School and we wish to recruit an individual who is willing to actively contribute to the administration and development of the School as a whole. 

You should apply if

You should apply if you have expertise in criminology and experience of delivering high quality learning experiences in a higher education context.  You should apply if you have an ability and interest in teaching a new first year compulsory unit (‘Harmful Societies’) on the BSc Criminology, and are willing contribute to other teaching areas relating to theory, skills and methods.

The post is open to applicants with expertise in any aspect of criminology, but we would particularly welcome applicants with interests in any of the following: social harm; political economy; inequality; social justice; mixed methods or quantitative methods.
