We have a wonderful opportunity for someone to join our vibrant Mathematics Department as a full-time Teacher of Mathematics on a fixed term maternity cover basis.

We are keen to invite applications from those who would like to make their own distinctive contribution to this ethos. We very much value colleagues who are willing to contribute to the co-curricular programme.
