We seek to communicate and disseminate our expertise and knowledge of this region across the University of Sheffield as well as nationally and internationally with the goal of impacting on the understanding and behaviour of a range of individuals, groups and organizations.

We aim to create ambitious, successful and highly employable students who are culturally agile, global citizens. Through innovative teaching and cutting-edge research, we seek to create a vibrant intellectual culture and to focus on important cross-cutting themes that break down boundaries between the study of China, Japan and Korea so that staff and students alike can achieve their full potential.

The successful candidate will support and assist with the organisation of academic and public facing activities (conferences, workshops and other events), assist with logging the Centre’s activities and project reporting to the funder, and help manage the Centre’s online presence (social media and website).

What We Offer:

  • 38 days annual leave (including closure days and Bank Holidays), with the possibility to purchase up to ten additional days. 
  • Up to 5 days of paid time off to cover emergency caring responsibilities.
  • A highly competitive pension scheme.
  • Discounts at participating shops and cinemas, and a cycle to work scheme.
  • A commitment to your development, with programmes, learning modules and mentoring schemes.
  • An inclusive and diverse workplace.
  • A commitment to your wellbeing, with confidential emotional support, support for those going through the menopause, experiencing fertility treatment and having a baby, paid leave for IVF treatment and more.
