Job Description

Grade 6: £35,302 – £40,704 pro-rata - appointment will be made at the first point of Grade 6 (£35,302)

CAHSS, Edinburgh College of Art, History of Art

Part-time (we guarantee a minimum of 250 hours)

Fixed term (21 weeks)

Applications are invited for a Guaranteed Hours (GH) contract as a Tutor in History of Art on the following course: HIAR11141 Topics in the History of Art (minimum 250 hours).

The Opportunity:

We are looking for an enthusiastic and committed colleague with experience, or potential to provide exceptional teaching in the field of Premodern Art History. The ideal candidate will have expertise in a non-European cultural area researching art, visual and/or material culture before 1800.

The Job Purpose is to deliver teaching and assessment of the postgraduate option course HIAR11141 Topics in the History of Art. The specific topic and thematics of the course will be research-led, reflecting the unique expertise of the Tutor. The course should complement existing postgraduate teaching within the department, offering further diversity in cultural areas and methodologies taught for our postgraduate cohorts. The course should not primarily engage with art histories of Europe or the UK. While the temporal specificity of the course may draw from any number of time periods or designations such as ancient, medieval, or Early Modern, the content must focus on art, visual and/or material culture made before 1800. Students enrolled on this course will be from a range of postgraduate degree programs, but primarily drawn from our MSc Global Premodern Art. We encourage proposed course topics to engage with Scotland’s rich and diverse local collection holdings at the University of Edinburgh and across the city.

The start date is 4 January 2027, or as soon as possible thereafter. This is a fixed term role to 28 May 2027, and will therefore cover one academic semester of teaching duties, focusing on the delivery of the postgraduate option course HIAR11141 Topics in the History of Art.

Your skills and attributes for success:

  • A PhD or equivalent qualification in the field of premodern art history
  • Ability to deliver specific courses in the field as required by the teaching needs of the subject area, in particular the following postgraduate course: HIAR11141 Topics in the History of Art https://www.drps.ed.ac.uk/26-27/dpt/cxhiar11141.htm
  • An enthusiastic, positive and creative approach to teaching and relationships with professional partners
  • Openness to the ideas and motivations of others and willingness to work as part of a team of academics and administrators
  • Commitment to the principles of academic governance and leadership by example.

A career with us has a range of other benefits that can be tailored to your lifestyle: professional development and subject matter expertise, opportunities to develop new skills and broaden your experience, and working within one of the world’s leading universities,

This post is guaranteed hours, part-time (we guarantee a minimum offer of 250 hours).

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
