Career Development Fellowship in Computer Science (3-year fixed-term)
Closing date: Wednesday 31 October 2018

Balliol College is recruiting a Career Development Fellow in Computer
Science. The Fellowship is intended to provide a structured
development opportunity for exceptional candidates embarking on an
academic career. The Fellow will receive mentoring from the Fellow in
Computation in Balliol.  The Fellow will also have the opportunity to
become a member of Oxford’s world-leading Department of Computer
Science. This is a full-time, fixed-term post for the period 1 January
2019 to 31 December 2021.

The area of the post is Computer Science, broadly
understood. Theoreticians and applied computer scientists are equally
welcome to apply.

The Fellow will teach undergraduate students and provide
administration for the College, including assessing and interviewing
for the annual admissions exercises. The appointed CDF will also be
expected to develop a significant portfolio of high-quality research
activities, including peer-reviewed publications, as an independent
academic computer scientist.

Candidates must hold or be near to completion of a PhD by 1 January
2019, and should not have completed a PhD or equivalent earlier than 1
October 2014 (with the exception of career breaks, e.g. for
maternity/paternity leave). A high level of academic achievement,
appropriate to the stage of the candidate’s career, is
essential. Candidates will also have the ability to provide excellent
small-group teaching. Previous experience of teaching would be an
advantage.

To apply for the Fellowship, please read the further particulars, and
send a completed application form together with the other materials as
requested in the further particulars to:
college.office at balliol.ox.ac.uk. The three academic referees listed on
the application form should be asked to send electronic references

2018. Applications received after the closing date will not be
accepted.

Potential applicants wishing to discuss the post should contact one of
the Fellows in Computer Science, Tom Melham or Edith Elkind, or the
Senior Tutor, Nicola Trott.

Interviews are scheduled to be held on Monday 12 November 2018.

Applications are particularly welcome from women and black and
minority ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in academic
