Oxford, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom University of Oxford Full time

The Department of Statistics and Somerville College are recruiting an Associate Professor of Statistics. The successful candidate will be an outstanding individual who is, or has the potential to become, a leader in their field. They will also be appointed to a Tutorial fellowship at Somerville College.

The successful candidate will have a doctorate in Statistics or a related discipline, and an outstanding research record, as well as the potential to attract research funding. The Department seeks candidates with interests in any field of Statistical research, which integrate well with research by current members of the department. We particularly welcome candidates with research interests in genomics, which could include epidemiological genomics and/or the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. They will have the skills and enthusiasm to lecture undergraduates and graduates, over a wide range of topics within Statistics, and to supervise students. Early- and mid-career academics are encouraged to apply.

Associate Professor is the main academic career grade at Oxford with a focus on research and teaching, spanning the full range of professor grades in the USA. Associate Professors are appointed jointly by a University department/faculty and an Oxford college, with a contract with both.

The Department of Statistics carries out world-leading research in computational statistics, machine learning, theoretical statistics, and probability as well as applied statistics fields, including statistical finance, statistical and population genetics, bioinformatics and statistical epidemiology. The Department enjoys close connections within Oxford, including to the Big Data Institute (BDI) and the Pandemic Sciences Institute. Research from Oxford's Department of Statistics and the Mathematical Institute was submitted together for the UK's recent national research assessment exercise, the Research Excellence Framework (REF Overall, 78% of our submission was judged to be 4* (the highest score, for world-leading research). This outstanding result is a testament to the quality and impact of the research produced, and the outstanding environment in Oxford, supported by our excellent professional services staff.

We would particularly welcome applications from women and black and minority ethnic candidates, who are currently under-represented in positions of this type at Oxford. Applicants will be judged on merit, according to their ability to satisfy the selection criteria as outlined in full in the job description.
