The successful candidate will be active in research and committed to teach in Environmental Archaeology, with a strong preference for the fields of archaeobotany, geoarchaeology, palaeoecology and/or landscape historical ecology, in all cases with the expectation of a strong interest in their relationships to people and societies. We seek someone with an active engagement in both fieldwork and expert lab-based analysis, who complements and helps to integrate existing specialisms within the department after recent and pending retirements, and whose approach is broad, theoretically informed and interdisciplinary. The Department values traditional research on macro- and micro-remains, but equally seeks to recruit a forward-looking archaeological scientist and thinker who will push the boundaries by applying cutting-edge methods (field and lab-based) to address challenges relating to current and future societal and environmental change. The appointed candidate may also have oversight of the Department's extensive ecological reference collections, and will be expected to be active in management of the appropriate sector of the Department's outstanding suite of laboratories.
