Further your knowledge of Latin American culture and Spanish language teaching.
The role
This is an opportunity to join one of the UK's leading centres for research in Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American Studies (RAE 2008). A truly global unit, we have specialisms covering regions in Latin America, the Caribbean, and Africa, as well as the Iberian Peninsula. You will teach Latin American Cultural Studies, along with Spanish as a foreign language at undergraduate level.
The person
You will have a PhD in a relevant field, submitted or very near completion, and demonstrable teaching experience in Latin American cultural studies at university level. Fluency in Spanish is essential, while experience of translation and developing online teaching materials is highly desirable. You need excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to empathise with students.
We welcome applications from candidates working on any aspect of Latin American culture but, to complement existing expertise, preference may be given to applicants who are not Southern Cone or Cuba specialists.
The University of Manchester values a diverse workforce and welcomes applications from all sections of the community.
