Career Development Research Fellowship in Mathematical Sciences

This prestigious fellowship is a full-time, four-year research position in the mathematical sciences, commencing on 1st October 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter. The successful candidate will be an early career researcher who has recently completed or is close to completing a doctorate, or who has recently been awarded a doctorate.

Key Responsibilities
  • Engage in full-time research in the mathematical sciences and its dissemination.
  • Propose, plan, and deliver a high-quality programme of original research.
  • Publicise the outcomes of that research through conference presentations and publications.
  • Engage in the life and activities of the College.
Research Environment

The successful candidate will join the vibrant mathematical science community at St John's College, Oxford. This includes the teaching fellows for the College, who work closely with Professor Stefan Kiefer, together with Professors Heather Harrington, Phillip Maini, Simon Myers, and James Maynard. The College has a large body of graduate students undertaking DPhils at the Mathematical Institute and the Department of Statistics, and typically a cohort of around 40 undergraduate students studying Mathematics, Mathematics and Statistics, or Mathematics and Computer Science.

Teaching and Outreach

The postholder will be asked to undertake a small amount of teaching for the College, typically involving giving tutorials to undergraduate students on courses related to the expertise of the postholder. The postholder will also participate in our undergraduate admissions exercise and contribute towards our state school mathematics and computer science study day.

Applications are welcomed from candidates who can demonstrate research excellence in any area of the mathematical sciences.
