The Department has research clusters in: screen cultures, gender and 
sexuality, new film and media historiographies and the archive, 
audio-visual environments and ecology, and non-fiction media that are 
informed by collective interest in questions of identity, practice, uses 
and decolonising the field. For this post, we invite applications from 
researchers with specialisations in areas that complement our existing 
strengths and in particular welcome expertise and interest in race as it 
relates to film and media. We would especially encourage applications 
from candidates whose work engages with professionals, community groups, 
activist organisations and/or the public (through, for instance, 
production studies, cultural policy, curation or archival practices). We 
also encourage interdisciplinarity and welcome candidates who could 
further develop our productive links with other Departments and Schools 
at St Andrews.

The successful candidate will hold a doctorate in a relevant subject at 
the time of appointment. They will be a scholar with a strong, 
developing research profile and a commitment to delivering high quality 
teaching within film studies. The successful candidate will be expected 
to have a range of interests, to be active in research publications that 
strengthen or complement those in the department and to be capable of 
teaching the subject to undergraduate and taught postgraduate students 
from a wide range of backgrounds.

For informal enquiries, we encourage those considering applying to 
contact the Head of Department, Dr Lucy Fife Donaldson 
((lfd2 /at/ st-andrews.ac.uk)) or the Head of the School of Philosophical, 
Anthropological and Film Studies, Professor James Harris 
((philhos /at/ st-andrews.ac.uk)).

We are fully committed to equality and diversity in our recruitment and 
employment policies. We operate family-friendly hours for core meetings 
and are happy to discuss flexible working arrangements for staff. We 
also offer reasonable childcare costs for applicants invited to interview

Applications are particularly welcome from, people from the Black, Asian 
and Minority Ethnic (BAME) community, and other protected 
characteristics who are under-represented in academic posts at the 
University.
