LSE Fellows teach at undergraduate and Masters’ level and contribute to courses as appropriate, with the support of faculty.
The successful candidate will have completed or be close to completing a PhD in economic history by the post start date and should be able to teach courses in economic history and/or financial history. Candidates must have a developing research record in economic history, excellent communication and presentation skills, and the ability to work in close partnership with fellow teachers, including on a one-on-one basis and in small groups, and to provide effective support, as necessary. Relevant teaching experience would be desirable.
We offer an occupational pension scheme, generous annual leave and excellent training and development opportunities, including mentoring and support in developing Fellows’ research agendas and an annual research allowance.
