The following positions are available at the University of Waikato. 
In case you get the impression that all of our staff have walked out,
these are all *new* positions.  (Actually one is an existing position
made vacant by an internal transfer into a new position).  Inquiries
about these positions may be made to me, but applications must be
made directly to the Personnel Department.
