The Department is also advertising a similar fellowship scheme for Hooke Research Fellows, for researchers in applied mathematics. There will be up to seven appointments made across the Hooke and Titchmarsh Fellowships in this recruitment. A separate exercise will be conducted for a Titchmarsh Research Fellow in Mathematical Physics, for candidates with interests in this area. Applications for job shares or for part-time working to accommodate family circumstances will be considered.

Candidates for the Titchmarsh Fellowships should have research interests compatible with those of our current faculty in the algebra, combinatorics, geometry, history of mathematics, logic, number theory, functional analysis, stochastic analysis or topology groups, or the Oxford Centre for Nonlinear PDE (OxPDE). You must clearly state at the start of your supporting letter which one of these research groups you feel is closest to your work. The successful applicants will be talented researchers, who have already produced excellent research during their PhD and in any postdoctoral positions. They will be free to conduct their own research programme.

To aid the development of their academic profile, Fellows will be required to contribute up to 3 hours of departmental teaching per week for the 24 weeks of each academic year, averaged over the period of the Fellowship to allow for extended visits elsewhere.

Candidates will have, or be close to completing, a PhD in pure mathematics or a related discipline. They must show evidence of independence and the ability to undertake research of the highest academic standard, hold an outstanding record of papers published in major international journals (commensurate with career stage), and have a realisable and relevant research plan which would enhance the research profile of the Mathematical Institute. Additional information about the posts, and a full list of selection criteria, are available in the job description.

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 BAME candidates, who are currently under-represented in positions of this type within the department.
