The Applied Languages Section of the School of Languages and

activity, undertake administrative duties, possibly supervise MA
students as appropriate, and contribute fully to the life of the
Department and the School commensurate with their grade.
Successful applicants will have proven skills and experience in all
the above areas. They will be committed to high quality teaching,
including the teaching of language (most probably translation), and
