Fixed term for 1 year from 21 September 2026, £14,472 per annum
The Governing Body of St Anne’s College invites applications for a Stipendiary Lecturer in Classics, tenable from 21 September 2026 for a fixed term of one year.
We are seeking an enthusiastic, self-motivated, talented lecturer able to undertake five contact hours a week of tutorial and/or small class teaching averaged over the three eight-week terms of the academic year 2026–27. Duties will include setting and marking written work, assisting students with study skills, revision and essay writing, submitting reports, and providing assistance with undergraduate admissions if requested. Alongside a proven teaching ability you will have good communication skills and be able to participate in pastoral and organisation tasks within the College.
One of the largest Colleges in the University of Oxford, with around 860 students, St Anne’s is down to earth, ambitious, outward facing and collaborative. We aspire to understand the world and change it for the better.
Our current teaching team is well established and experienced but will be renewed in October 2026, when we will be joined by Prof Amber Carpenter as Tutor in Ancient Philosophy. The successful candidate will work particularly closely with Prof Matthew Leigh (Tutor in Classical Languages and Literature), Dr Holly Hunt (Lecturer in Greek and Latin Language), and Dr Ed Bispham (Lecturer in Ancient History). We admit on average 6-7 students a year in Classics and its related joint schools and have also developed a thriving Visiting Student programme. We are committed to sharing our love of the subject with talented young people whatever their educational background and have tested and effective systems for maximising the progress of those starting either Greek or Latin from scratch.
