King’s College London wishes to appoint a Lecturer in Modern Languages with expertise in the politics and cultures of work in Europe. The post-holder will be based in the Faculty of Arts and Humanities but will be responsible for leading on the institutional development of links with the Faculty of Social Science and Public Policy (SSPP) and the School of Management and Business. The post-holder will also develop innovative and interdisciplinary cross-Modern Languages and pan-European teaching which articulates the interface between culture, history, politics and economics from the perspective of the Modern Languages and Cultural Studies. This teaching will appeal not only to students of the Modern Languages but also to students in SSPP and the School of Management and Business. Research conducted by the appointee should be interdisciplinary and cut across the fields of Modern Languages, Social Science and Management, with an area specialism in either French-, German-, Spanish- or Portuguese-speaking Europe.
