Grayling is Founder and Master of the New College of the Humanities, a private for-profit undergraduate college in London.

He is also a Supernumerary Fellow of St Anne’s College, Oxford and until 2011 was Professor of Philosophy at Birkbeck College, University of London.

For several years he wrote the Last Word column for the Guardian newspaper and now writes a column for the Times.

He is a Vice President of the British Humanist Association, the Patron of the United Kingdom Armed Forces Humanist Association, a patron of Dignity in Dying, and an Honorary Associate of the National Secular Society.
