The School of Languages and Cultures at Sheffield is looking for a Teaching Associate in German to join our team next year. If you’re committed to helping develop the study of German at University level, we’d love to hear from you.
As a Teaching Associate in German, you will play a crucial role in contributing to the success of our students and helping them compete in a globalized world. This unique opportunity will allow you to showcase your expertise and passion for the German language, history and culture, while working closely in a team-oriented environment.
We undertake teaching and research in European languages, including those now widely spoken and used across the Americas and Africa. Languages of specialism in the School include Catalan, Czech, Dutch, French (including Francophonie), German, Luxembourgish, Portuguese (peninsular, Brazilian and African), Russian, and Spanish (peninsular and Latin American). Areas of academic specialization include linguistics, translation, literature, visual studies, culture, history and intellectual history.
You’ll teach and examine across a range of Germanic Studies core and optional modules, help look after our students’ pastoral needs, and contribute to the administration of the German programme. We’ll welcome your contribution to the intellectual life of the School, whether that is through your commitment to improving teaching, your research interests, or ideally both.
You’ll already have, or be close to obtaining, a PhD in a relevant area of Germanic studies, and you’ll be able to contribute to core aspects of our teaching programme in German history and culture of the 19th – 21st centuries. You’ll have near-native or native command of German and a demonstrated record of high-quality teaching.
We’re one of the best not-for-profit organisations to work for in the UK. The University’s Total Reward Package includes a competitive salary, a generous Pension Scheme and annual leave entitlement, as well as access to a range of learning and development courses to support your personal and professional development.
We build teams of people from different heritages and lifestyles from across the world, whose talent and contributions complement each other to greatest effect. We believe diversity in all its forms delivers greater impact through research, teaching and student experience.
