The Courtauld is seeking to appoint a Lecturer/Senior Lecturer/Reader (equivalent to Assistant or Associate Professor) with a specialist knowledge of the history of the art market.  Applications are welcomed from those with a scholarly expertise in any aspect of the art market from the early modern period to the late twentieth century, but who also have a broader knowledge of the histories of art markets both in the UK and internationally. We are seeking candidates who will engage with and drive forward debate and scholarship, who will critically engage with current issues and debates in the field, and whose research is of world-class quality.

Working with a specialist on today’s art market, the post-holder will make a leading contribution to the design and delivery of a new MA in Art and Business at The Courtauld, which will launch in September 2025. This MA will aim to be the leading postgraduate programme in the subject, equipping students with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in the contemporary art world.
