Lecteur / Lectrice (Language Teaching in French)

Magdalen College and Keble College propose to appoint jointly a Lecteur / Lectrice from 1 October 2025 to 30 June 2026. The Lecteur / Lectrice role supports French language teaching across both colleges, and during term the appointee will be expected to spend a portion of their working time on site at each college. The appointee will be required to teach spoken and written French at a high level, and must be fluent in the language. The salary will be in the range £27,838 - £31,459 per annum (with discretionary range to £34,046 per annum) pro rata, depending on experience. The salary will be paid monthly in arrears for nine months, with the post-holder therefore receiving 3/4 of the annual salary. Responsibility as lead college and employer rotates between the two colleges on an annual basis; for the academic year 2025-26 Keble will be the lead college. This is an early-career post, fixed-term and non-renewable, ideally suited to an individual who has completed a Master’s degree in the humanities and intends to pursue doctoral work.
