Full Job Description

Duties include undertaking your own programme of research and assisting with ongoing research programmes, using databases, modelling, computation as appropriate; writing up results for publication; and presenting your work to colleagues at conferences or steering groups, both internally and externally. You may also be asked to assist in the supervision of student projects, and/or to provide supervision/instruction to classes or small groups of students.

The successful candidates will hold a Masters' degree in mathematics and have relevant background knowledge in mathematical statistics and probability theory. Further knowledge of modern techniques in analysis and partial differential equations (PDEs) will strengthen any application but is not strictly necessary. Previous relevant research experience at this level is desirable but not essential.
