The Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford, proposes to appoint a Senior Research Fellow in Functional Analysis, from 1st September 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter.
The successful candidate will play a key role in contributing to the teaching and administration of the Department and Functional Analysis Research Group. The postholder will also be expected to lead independent research projects and supervise MSc dissertations. The department is seeking to increase its student intake on the Oxford Master’s in Mathematical Sciences (OMMS), and you will be expected to supervise OMMS dissertations and teach on this course in particular.
In addition, to assist the department in its strategic goal of improving the diversity of its undergraduate and postgraduate students and faculty, in particular the gender balance, the successful candidate is expected to engage with outreach and/or mentoring activities aimed at increasing diversity in mathematics.
Minimum Requirements:
Candidates will have a doctorate in mathematics or closely related subject.
Proven ability and/or potential to carry out high quality independent research at an international level in Functional Analysis, as evidenced by leading publications and international research collaborations.
Ability to attract research funding, with evidence (commensurate with career stage) of an excellent track record in obtaining research grants.
We proudly hold a departmental Athena SWAN Silver Award and an institutional Race Equality Charter Bronze Award, which guide our progress towards advancing racial and gender equality. As part of our strategic aim to improve staff equality and diversity, we would particularly welcome applications from women and from BME candidates, who are currently under-represented in positions of this type within the department.
