The Music Department at the University of Manchester invites applications for a temporary lectureship in Music Analysis, tenable from 1 August 2021 (or as soon as possible thereafter) until 30 June 2022. This opportunity has become available due to the need to provide teaching cover for a member of staff on maternity leave. The August start date is available to allow time for preparation in advance of the new teaching year; a slightly later start may also be considered. You will need to be available for teaching and administrative duties in Manchester from September.
You will be expected to convene and deliver course units in Music Analysis across the curriculum, contribute to other teaching at undergraduate and Master’s level as required (including dissertation supervision), and contribute to the management and administration of the department under the guidance of the Head of Music. While the post is teaching-focused, you will also be encouraged to contribute to the research culture of the department.
You will hold a PhD (or equivalent) in Music, demonstrate subject expertise in your specialist field, have a strong awareness of current thinking in the field, and have a proven ability to provide high-quality and innovative teaching to a range of student groups at different levels.
As an equal opportunities employer, we welcome applications from all suitably qualified persons and all appointments will be made on merit. As we are committed to the principles of the Race Equality Charter Mark, we would particularly welcome applications from the Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) community who are currently under-represented at this level in this area.
Please note that we are unable to respond to enquiries, accept CVs or applications from Recruitment Agencies.
