The Department of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics is seeking to recruit a new Faculty member who can contribute to research and teaching in Statistics from September 2027 (or by agreement).
Statistics is broadly interpreted and includes theoretical aspects of mathematical statistics through to foundations of machine learning.
Appointment will be made at Assistant Professor (Grade 9), which, subject to satisfactory completion of a probation period (3-5 years), leads to a tenured position.
Candidates should hold a PhD or equivalent in Statistics, Mathematics, or a closely related subject. The ideal candidate will have a strong track record of research excellence and be able to lecture a range of courses in statistics at undergraduate and master's levels. They will have the ability, or potential, to secure research funding to support their research vision and build a network of collaborators. The post-holder will be part of the world-leading Statistical Laboratory with strong interdisciplinary connections within Cambridge, the UK, and internationally.
The University of Cambridge has been ranked in the top five for Mathematics in the QS World Rankings for each of the last 5 years. The Mathematics departments occupy a modern, purpose-built campus, also including the Isaac Newton Institute.
As well as relocation costs, start-up packages (up to 5 years) are provided to assist the post-holder in establishing their research in Cambridge, and regular sabbatical leave enables the Faculty to focus on research and scholarship.
The University actively supports equality, diversity and inclusion and encourages applications from all sections of society.
The University has a responsibility to ensure that all employees are eligible to live and work in the UK.
