Senior Research Fellowship in Modern Languages
Salary: £111,428 to £122,428 (and other benefits).
All Souls College invites applications for a Senior Research Fellowship tenable from 1 October 2026 (or date to be agreed) in Modern Languages, relating to the study of literature, screen media, and culture associated with any of the living languages taught at the University of Oxford in the Faculties of Medieval and Modern Languages and Asian and Middle Eastern Studies or in Celtic Studies. (See the FAQs for further details of the post’s subject scope.)
All Souls is primarily a research institution, with particular strengths in the Humanities, Mathematics, and Social and Natural Sciences. A Senior Research Fellowship is of comparable academic standing to a statutory Professorship in the University of Oxford or to a pure-research tenured chair in the U.S. Applicants are expected to have a correspondingly distinguished record of achievement in research. Those elected may, in addition, apply within the University for the title of ‘Professor’.
The College, which occupies a prime central Oxford site, has buildings dating largely from the fifteenth and eighteenth century, including an outstanding library. It has about 80 Fellows, some of whom are studying for graduate degrees, and a well-established Visiting Fellows scheme. (There are no undergraduate members.) Senior Research Fellows are members of the Governing Body of the College and expected to play an active role in its governance as well as participating actively in its intellectual life and establishing links with relevant departments in the University for which they may undertake to do some teaching if they wish.
Closing date: 12 noon (UK time), Friday 19 September 2025
Interviews: Thursday 5 March or Friday 6 March 2026
All Souls College particularly welcomes applications from women and black and minority ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in academic posts in Oxford.
