The Holocaust Research Institute (HRI) at Royal Holloway, University of London, is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral research fellow to contribute to a major donor-funded project, 鈥淕lobal Jewish Studies in/as Holocaust Studies鈥� for the academic year 2025-26. The successful candidate will conduct research in their area of expertise, contribute to teaching undergraduate and MA modules, as required, and will also be expected to deliver 1-2 鈥渕asterclasses鈥� for postgraduate students, faculty and HRI associates. They will advance the interests of the HRI with respect to the wider scholarly community and the public. The post is fixed term for one academic year.
鈥淕lobal Jewish Studies in/as Holocaust Studies鈥� seeks to integrate Jewish Studies and Holocaust Studies into the HRI鈥檚 work and to advance the discipline of Holocaust Studies nationally and internationally.

We welcome applications from candidates whose research has a global focus. Practical expertise in digital humanities methods related to the applicant鈥檚 research in Jewish Studies is desirable but not essential.
