The Department of Physics at Durham University seeks to appoint a scientist to the role of Assistant Professor in Condensed Matter Physics. We welcome applications from those able to demonstrate research excellence in the field of condensed matter/materials physics, coupled with the enthusiasm and dedication to develop and deliver teaching for our students to a high standard. Applicants must also aim to understand and engage with the services, citizenship and values of the Department of Physics. Durham University provides a diverse working and teaching environment that is inclusive and welcoming, where everyone is treated fairly with dignity and respect. Candidates will be expected to demonstrate the key principles of equality, diversity and inclusion as part of the assessment process.

For this post within condensed matter physics, we are keen to hear from candidates with a track record of cutting-edge experimental investigations of magnetic systems, such as topological magnetic materials and quantum magnetism that involves significant utilisation of international research facilities, such as x-ray and neutron sources. We are particularly interested in applicants capable of establishing collaborations both within Durham and more widely in the UK and internationally.

Candidates will be expected to develop their own research programme, to publish high-quality research with a focus on quality in high impact journals and have the potential to engage with industrial partners. They will also be expected to collaborate in the development and delivery of high-quality research-led teaching in an inclusive and supportive learning environment which enables undergraduate and postgraduate students to achieve their potential. The post is available to start from April 2025 onwards.

Candidates should have a PhD in Physics or a related subject and an established record of research at an internationally competitive level. They should also demonstrate potential for teaching and postgraduate student supervision and a clear commitment to developing an inclusive and welcoming working environment.

The Department of Physics is committed to building and maintaining a diverse and inclusive environment. It is pledged to the Athena SWAN charter, where we hold a silver award, and has the status of IoP Juno Champion. We embrace equality and particularly welcome applications from women, black and minority ethnic candidates, and members of other groups that are under-represented in physics. Durham University provides a range of benefits including pension, flexible and/or part time working hours, shared parental leave policy and childcare provision.
