Southampton, United Kingdom University of Nottingham Full time

The School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering at the University of Southampton welcomes applications for the position of Professor or Associate Professor in Analytical Chemistry. The successful candidate will strengthen our research expertise and culture within the triple helix strategy of the University, which seeks to achieve cross-fertilisation between research, education and enterprise activity. The University of Southampton is in the top 1% of world universities and is one of the UK’s top 15 research-intensive universities.

About the role

We seek candidates with an internationally recognised academic or industrial profile in analytical chemistry, with a specific focus on chromatography and mass spectrometry. The holder of this role will be expected to provide leadership in analytical chemistry research, education and enterprise activities within the School. Our chromatography and mass spectrometry facility has a wide range of techniques available, many of which are unique, supporting research in the School, wider university, nationally and internationally. The vacancy has been created by the retirement of a leading member of the staff that developed this world-leading facility.

The successful applicant will demonstrate:

  • Experience in shaping and leading research and enterprise in analytical chemistry.
  • A proven track record in raising external research and/or enterprise funding.
  • An ability to inspire students and colleagues, including through teaching of analytical chemistry.

What we can offer you

A collegiate research-led School in a world-leading University that strongly values education and enterprise. As an integrated School, we are strategically focused on advancing research at the intersection of our well-established Chemistry strengths and our growing research activities in Chemical Engineering.

An established facility with excellent collaboration track record and opportunities, and an existing portfolio of enterprise links.

The University values diversity and equality, and we actively encourage applications from under-represented groups. We are delighted to be holders of the Race Equality Charter Bronze Award 2022, and hold both institutional and departmental Athena SWAN silver awards. We recognise that employees may wish to have working patterns that fit with their caring responsibilities or work-life balance. Due consideration will be given to applicants who have had career breaks for reasons including maternity, paternity or adoption leave, disability or illness.

If you are interested or need advice about your suitability, you are encouraged to contact the Head of School, Professor Andrew Hector, for further details.

Application Procedure:

To apply for these positions please select the “Apply Online” link below and submit your academic CV with a covering letter that provides details of your current and future research and enterprise plans, and what you feel you will bring to our School.

Interviews will take place in person in Southampton. Southampton is well connected – just over an hour from central London and with an international airport, but with beautiful surroundings on the south coast and in the New Forest. Find out more about the University and the city here.
