The Lecturer will have a PhD awarded by the starting date; will have native or near-native competence in French; and will demonstrate a record of publications of international excellence commensurate with her/his career stage. Experience of teaching in Higher Education at undergraduate and/or postgraduate level is desirable, but early-career applications are also warmly encouraged.
