To be eligible for appointment the prospective candidate must hold a PhD and have completed 24 months as a fixed-term or casual Academic staff member. Through the annual workforce planning process, the University will normally make available two positions per year. Selection will be based on merit. STF appointments will normally be on an on-going basis at Academic Level A or B, with selection based on a competitive process with demonstrated outstanding teaching performance an essential requirement. STF’s will be subject to the normal processes for probation, promotion and PPR.
