The College invites applications for this post, which is tenable for a fixed period of three years from 1 October 2024, and based in New College, Oxford. The person appointed will be expected to undertake their own independent and original academic research in mathematical, physical, engineering, or life sciences. The Fellowship is open to those who have already acquired a first degree, and who at the time of appointment have taken their PhD/ DPhil viva voce examination. Applications are particularly welcomed from black and minority ethnic researchers. New College hopes that encouraging black and minority ethnic researchers to apply for this Fellowship may support those from ethnically diverse backgrounds to develop their academic careers. This positive action aims to tackle the disproportionately low representation of BME researchers in UK academia.

The Fellowship carries a stipend of £26,323 p.a. (subject to review). The appointment will be pensionable under the USS scheme, details of which are available here:

1 Employer-provided residential accommodation is subject to taxation as a benefit-in-kind for the 'services' involved, for any payment of Community Charge, and on the 'value' of the property. The total amount varies somewhat between different flats across College and the Home Bursar or Accountant can give you a guide as to the amount of tax you will face in any particular unit - in all cases, given the age of the College buildings and assuming JRFs are at a 20% marginal rate of taxation, the total is not likely to exceed £ per annum. Please note that, if the HMRC change the taxation rules again (as done recently), College does not compensate employees for any increased level of tax.

The Fellowship carries a stipend of £26,323 per annum
