  • A PhD in Cultural Studies, Italian Studies, anthropology, ethnography, or history with a strong focus on memory studies
  • Very good or near-native skills in the Italian language
  • Experience in investigating urban settings is an advantage

Benefits

The position offers:

  • A competitive salary, estimated to be around €60,000 - €80,000 per annum, depending on qualifications and experience
  • The opportunity to work on an exciting and ambitious research project
  • Collaboration with experienced researchers and academics
  • A supportive and dynamic working environment

How to Apply
