[Commlist] Job Vacancy: Professor of Media Industries, University of Nottingham, UK
Tue Jul 26 11:15:53 GMT 2022
The Department of Cultural, Visual and Media studies is seeking to
appoint a Professor of Media Industries. The Department is part of the
School of Cultures, Languages and Area Studies, and we are looking for
an outstanding academic to join this vibrant research and learning
community.
Our School thrives through the different ideas and experiences of
colleagues, who come from a mix of cultures and backgrounds. We strive
to foster a welcoming, inspiring and supportive workplace. We are
seeking applications from candidates whose background, experience and
identity broadens and enhances the diversity of our existing team and
would especially welcome applications from members of groups who are
currently underrepresented in the School, particularly Black, Asian and
minority ethnic scholars. We understand that having a mix of
perspectives, lived experiences and approaches to teaching and research
enhances our day-to-day work and enriches our School community.
The Department takes pride in supporting a research culture that is
inclusive, supportive, ambitious and developmental for staff at all
stages of their career, and within which individual and collaborative
research can flourish, can influence the wider discipline, and have an
impact far beyond the academy. We are therefore particularly pleased
that 90% of our research environment has been evaluated as ‘world
leading’ in REF2021 (the UK’s Research Excellence Framework) the
national assessment of UK university research.
We seek candidates with research expertise in transformations within the
Media Industries that may include one or more of the following
specialisms: Emergent media technologies, Sustainability, Immersive
Media, Equity and Inclusion or Cultures and practices in the Global
South. You will undertake a substantive programme of research consistent
with professorial standing, leading to significant grant applications,
contributing to potential impact case studies and research outputs. We
are currently revising our undergraduate curriculum and implementing
significant innovation within our learning provision; the successful
candidate will lead a similar project across our postgraduate taught
provision on the basis of their innovative teaching practice and
experience. Ideally, this would speak to a set of global and decolonial
perspectives and imperatives.
You will have responsibility for contributing to leading the department
in administrative terms as well as serving as Head of Department in
rotation with colleagues. You will contribute to undergraduate and
postgraduate teaching as well as supervising postgraduate research students.
The successful candidate will be expected to raise the profile of the
Department of Cultural, Media and Visual Studies both within the
University and beyond, at the national and international levels.
Informal enquiries may be addressed to Helen Kennedy, via email

Please note that applications sent directly to this email address will
not be accepted.
This position is available on a permanent, full-time basis (36.25 hours
per week). Job share arrangements may be considered.
