Detail:
Recognising that diversity is important in achieving excellence, Rhodes University strongly encourages South African members of underrepresented designated groups as well as persons with disabilities to apply. Spouses and partners of existing staff members are also encouraged to apply.
Requirements
Senior Lecturer :
A PhD in Classics, Latin or Greek with experience in teaching, researching and supervising in the disciplinary areas of Classical Studies (ancient history, literature, art and thought), and at least one classical language (i.e. Classical Latin or Ancient Greek), but preferably both.
Lecturer:
At least a Masters' degree in Classical Studies, Latin or Greek, preferably with substantial progress towards completing a PhD, with ability to teach undergraduate modules on the history, literature, art and thought of ancient societies, and at least one classical language (i.e. Classical Latin or Ancient Greek).
Please refer to the role profile for full requirements.
Please note that this appointment will be made in line with the requirements of the Employment Equity Act 55 of 1998, as amended and the University's recruitment and selection policies and equity strategies. The initial focus will be on equity candidates.
In terms of Immigration Legislation (Act No. 13 of 2002 & Regulations) as amended, international staff members (non-SA citizens) have to comply with the provisions of the Act. This therefore means that the period of employment to non-SA citizens will be guided by the validity period of the work permit. In line with legislation governing employment of foreign nationals, employment contracts will be offered on the basis that a development plan would be implemented for the transfer of skills to a South African resident. The onus is on candidates to ensure that they are in possession of a valid work permit before the commencement of employment at the University, failing which the employment with Rhodes University will be terminated.
