The Opportunity
The School of Philosophical, Historical and Indigenous Studies is seeking either a Level B Lecturer or Level C Senior Lecturer to join the Archaeology and Ancient History team. The role involves contributing to teaching across undergraduate and Honours programs in Archaeology and Ancient History, supervising graduate research students, and working collaboratively within team-teaching and interdisciplinary initiatives. The successful candidate will also support curriculum development, student engagement, and the department's public outreach activities.
The position will play an important role in maintaining and further developing the School's strengths in interregional approaches to Egypt and its connections with the wider Mediterranean, including across archaeology, ancient history, and cultural heritage studies. At Level C, the role also carries a broader expectation of significant contributions to teaching leadership, scholarship, and/or research, with an emphasis on academic development, curriculum enhancement, and active participation in the intellectual life and strategic priorities of the department.
As the successful candidate, you will have demonstrated experience in Egyptology, archaeology or ancient history (from the Predynastic to Ptolemaic periods), supported by a relevant qualification. You will bring a solid and active research profile in Egyptological,



archaeological, ancient historical, and/or cultural heritage research, evidenced by high-quality refereed publications, and a commitment to advancing scholarship through ongoing research activity, curriculum development, and academic leadership.
You will also demonstrate experience in tertiary teaching, including curriculum and subject development, course coordination, and the ability to motivate and engage diverse student cohorts across undergraduate and postgraduate levels. You will have the capacity to work collaboratively and collegially within academic teams and with external partners, with a demonstrated record of postgraduate supervision, research leadership, and securing external research funding, contributing to research projects, and actively participating in the broader academic and service environment.
