Chair and Lectureships in Statistics
The University of Bristol seeks both to appoint an outstanding
statistical scientist to a new Chair and also to fill one or more new
Lectureships to augment its Statistics Group. This top-rated group
recently won major strategic funding through an EPSRC Science and
Innovation award, which will support 4 new lectureships and 8 postdoc
positions, and a wide range of research and research training activities.
The new Chair will play a major role in leading and developing this
initiative, which will focus on innovative theory and methodology,
equipping the discipline to meet the challenges of future applications.
The successful candidate must demonstrate an excellent record of
research achievement and a talent for insightful academic leadership.
The successful candidates for the Lectureships should exhibit clear
potential for advancing the field of statistics and demonstrate
commitment to teaching. More experienced candidates should be able to
demonstrate a strong track record in research.

positions, see: http://www.stats.bris.ac.uk/

Chair) or [log in to unmask] (about the Lectureships).
The successful candidates will be appointed to appropriate points on the
Lecturer B scale (currently £28829 to £36959) or Professorial scale
(minimum £46245, no maximum), according to qualifications and
experience. The lectureships are subject to the University's standard
probationary procedures.
The University is developing a new pay, grading and terms and conditions
structure that will be applied across all staff groups. All our jobs are
currently being evaluated and we plan to implement a new structure by no
later than August 2006.
