The post holder will also be involved in undergraduate admissions. For the years when the appointee is engaged in the academic care of Mansfield students, they will be a member of Mansfield’s Senior Common Room, including free lunch and dinner in College during term, and in vacations (when the College kitchens are open), and a shared teaching room.
