Seven academic positions in Statistics at the University of Warwick (all levels)
Department of Statistics, University of Warwick, United Kingdom
Enthusiastic and excellent academics are sought to be part of the Department of Statistics at Warwick, one of the world’s most prominent and most research active departments of Statistics. We are advertising seven posts in total, which reflects the strong commitment of the University of Warwick to invest in Statistics. We intend to fill the following positions:
• Harrison Early-Career Assistant Professor of Statistics
• Assistant Professor of Statistics
• Senior Teaching Fellow in Statistics
• Assistant or Associate Professor of Financial Mathematics
• Assistant or Associate Professor of Statistics (two positions)
• Full Professor of Statistics.
All posts are permanent, with the exception of the Harrison Early-Career Assistant Professor position, which is for a period of three years.
You will have expertise in statistics (to be interpreted in the widest sense and to include both applied and methodological statistics, probability, probabilistic operational research and mathematical finance together with interdisciplinary topics involving one or more of these areas) and you will help shape research and teaching leadership in this fast-developing discipline. Applicants for senior positions should have an excellent publication record and ability to secure research funding. Applicants for more junior positions should show exceptional promise to become leading academics.
While most positions are open to applicants with expertise in any field of statistics (widely interpreted as above), the Department is particularly interested in strengthening its existing groups in Data Science and in Financial Mathematics. The Department is heavily involved in the Warwick Data Science Institute and the Alan Turing Institute, the national institute for data science, headquartered in London. If interested, a successful candidate can spend part of their time at the Alan Turing Institute as a Faculty Fellow. The Department is also involved in a number of exciting initiatives at postgraduate level in Financial Mathematics and is looking to build upon its existing strengths by investing in computational finance or in statistical methods applied to finance which would broaden its research and teaching base.
Informal enquires can be addressed to any of Professors Mark Steel ([log in to unmask]), David Hobson ([log in to unmask]), Gareth Roberts ([log in to unmask]), Wilfrid Kendall ([log in to unmask]) or to any other senior member of the Department.
Closing date: 3 January 2017 for all Assistant and Associate level posts and the Senior Teaching Fellow position and 10 January 2017 for the Full Professor position.
Applicants at Senior Teaching Fellow, Assistant and Associate levels should ask their referees to send letters of recommendation by the closing date to the Departmental Administrator, Mrs Paula Matthews ([log in to unmask]).
