Description :

Are you returning to research after a career break, and looking for your next challenge? Do you want to further your career in one of the UK’s leading research intensive universities?

Applications are invited for a two year Daphne Jackson Fellowship that will be hosted and fully sponsored by the School of Mathematics in the University of Leeds. The fellowship is intended for individuals returning to research in any area of Mathematics or Statistics, after a career break of at least two years.

The Daphne Jackson Trust is dedicated to returning scientists, engineers, technologists and mathematicians (STEM) to their careers following a break taken for family, caring or health reasons. Daphne Jackson Fellowships are unique - they offer STEM professionals wishing to return to a research career after a break of two or more years, the opportunity to balance an individually tailored retraining programme with a challenging research project in a suitably supportive environment.

This Fellowship is part-time over two years and consists of a challenging research project and at least 100 hours retraining per year. The unparalleled support offered by the Trust's Fellowship Advisors and administrative staff, coupled with mentoring and retraining provided during the Fellowship, give returners the confidence and skills they need to successfully return to research. The role involves research in any area of Mathematics or Statistics, with support from academic staff in the School of Mathematics and from the Daphne Jackson Trust.
