Fixed-term Stipendiary Lectureship (7 contact hours per week) in Law 01 January 2025 – 31 December 2025

Hertford College intends to appoint a fixed-term Stipendiary Lecturer in Law from 01 January 2025 to 31 December 2025. The successful candidate will be asked to provide tutorial teaching in Land Law and the Law of Trusts.

The Lecturer will be under the direction of Dr Aruna Nair, Fellow and Tutor in Law at Hertford. The overall tutorial teaching load will be an average of 7 contact hours per week, depending how many subjects are taught (in groups of two/three and small classes) over three terms.

The successful candidate should have a good degree in Law and would be expected to have, or be close to completing, a doctorate in the subject, although applications from those who do not have a doctorate, but who have commensurate experience and qualifications, will also be considered. Experience of teaching undergraduates, preferably in small groups, would be an advantage, as would experience with Oxford’s undergraduate admissions process.

The salary for the 7-hour lectureship will be in the range £22,865 - £25,475 per annum, depending on qualifications and experience, and will be pensionable with USS. The successful candidate will be entitled to associate membership of the college’s Senior Common Room (SCR), free lunches while undertaking teaching duties in term time and during vacations, and access to an academic allowance. Further particulars for the post are available on the Hertford College website. 

Applications must include a CV detailing all relevant experience, a covering letter, a college application form (available from the college website) and the names and contact details of two referees. Applications should be sent as one pdf string to academic-recruitment@hertford.ox.ac.uk by midday Monday 30 September. Candidates should also arrange for their referees to write to the college by the same deadline.  Interviews will be held in the week commencing 14 October 2024.

Potential candidates are welcome to contact Aruna Nair (aruna.nair@hertford.ox.ac.uk).
