Associate Professor.2.01
1 month ago
Applications are welcomed from scholars with a track record of critical research in dimensions of difference such as race, gender, sexuality, (dis)ability, age etc, especially where these engage intersectional and decolonial theoretical frameworks. The successful applicant will have an ability and willingness to provide research and academic leadership, participate in a collegial atmosphere, generate quality published research, actively seek thematic funding, manage international research programmes, provide supervision of postgraduate students and teaching in the Masters’ programme, be part of the editorial team of the _International Journal of Critical Diversity Studies_, and engage in public debates and seminars.
As the appointee will be expected to serve as the director of the Wits Centre for Diversity Studies, this post requires the ability to lead and strengthen the institutional, academic and strategic vision of the Centre. Critically, this requires an academic willing to invest time and energy in the continued growth of the Centre, including engagement across the university to forge new partnerships across disciplines, a focus on fundraising to ensure the sustainability of the Centre, and support the development of postgraduate and early career researchers. This requires dedicating time to the extensive administrative and leadership duties involved in this position.
**Requirements**:
- A commitment to issues of difference, diversity and social justice
- A PhD in a relevant social science discipline
- Interdisciplinarity in training and approach
- A substantial research track record, including publications in internationally recognized journals, editing of books and special issues
- Extensive administrative, project management and curriculum development experience
- Proven teaching record
- Proven ability to obtain and manage external research funding
- Experience in managing project finances
- A proven record of leading and working with a diverse and interdisciplinary team in ways that support mentorship and career development
- Existing local and international partnerships and networks
