Candidates should have native-speaker-like proficiency in Mandarin Chinese and demonstrable experience of teaching and research in Chinese Studies at university level. The successful candidate will be expected to provide leadership in developing the teaching and research agenda for Chinese Studies within the School.

The first cohort of undergraduate students taking Chinese will travel to China in September 2010 to spend Year 3 of their degree programme studying at a Chinese University. The successful candidate will be expected to coordinate and monitor the students' Year Abroad experience, and to actively develop further exchange links within China. The successful candidate will be expected to make an important contribution to the research and teaching profile of the School, as well as to undertake significant administrative responsibilities.
