To echo Tom, we're a friendly & collegial team here at ANU Classics (and in the School & University more broadly). The post would interest an ECR with expertise in ancient monarchy, particularly in the eastern Mediterranean, who is keen to teach broadly across our curriculum.
We've got a 4-year associate lecturer (level A) post up for grabs, start date 23 June 2025 or thereabouts; lecturer will work closely with @DrCDavenport, on his exciting Future Fellowship project. Come work with us! You'll love it
