We are looking to appoint a Senior Research Fellow to join the Department of Statistics and the Oxford-Man Institute of Quantitative Finance (OMI). The postholder will split their time roughly 40/60 between the two departments, but the appointment is formally held in the Department of Statistics.

The appointment will be in the areas of statistical finance, in particular data science and machine learning applied to quantitative finance. The postholder will lead an independent programme of research, as well contributing to the teaching and administration of the Department of Statistics.

We proudly hold a departmental Athena SWAN Bronze 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 BAME candidates, who are currently under-represented in comparable positions within the department.

Please direct informal enquiries to Christl Donnelly (christl.donnelly@stats.ox.ac.uk), Frank Windmeijer (frank.windmeijer@stats.ox.ac.uk) or Mihai Cucuringu (mihai.cucuringu@stats.ox.ac.uk), quoting vacancy reference 164223.

You will be required to upload a statement setting out how you meet the selection criteria, a curriculum vitae including full list of publications, a statement of research interests, and the contact details of two referees as part of your online application.
