The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Lancaster University 
invites applications for a lectureship in Discrete Mathematics. Details 
are below.

Lecturer in Pure Mathematics (Discrete Mathematics)
Mathematics & Statistics
Salary: £36,382 to £40,927
Closing Date: Sunday 12 June 2022
Interview Date: Thursday 30 June 2022
Reference: 0159-22
Applications are sought from candidates working in discrete mathematics, 
broadly understood, with a proven track record of publishing research of 
international quality. You should demonstrate a clear potential for 
attracting research funding and for being a capable and enthusiastic 
contributor to the Department’s undergraduate programmes.

Lancaster is one of the UK’s top departments in Mathematics and 
Statistics, ranked 5th overall in the 2014 Research Excellence Framework 
and 3rd for the impact of its research. The Department currently has 49 
members of academic staff, 26 research associates and over 70 research 
students. Lancaster University was the 2020 Times and Sunday Times 
International University of the Year, and has been named NEON Higher 
Education Institution of the Year 2021 for delivering an innovative and 
progressive programme of activities for Widening Participation students 
from primary school through to the workplace.

This is an exciting time to join our thriving Pure Mathematics section, 
which includes 7 professors, 11 readers or senior lecturers and 6 
lecturers. Its research is organised around six themes: Algebra & 
Geometry, Analysis, Combinatorics, Geometric Rigidity, Mathematical 
Physics and Probability. We wish to appoint a lecturer whose research 
interests complement those of our Combinatorics and Geometric Rigidity 
themes.

We welcome applications from all diversity groups. The Department 
provides an environment which aims to meet the individual needs of each 
member of staff. All new lecturers are provided with mentoring and 
support, with a carefully selected group lead taking responsibility for 
personal development, and have a reduced teaching and administrative 
load for the first three years. We are committed to family-friendly and 
flexible working policies, and seek to promote a healthy work-life 
balance. The University is a charter member of Athena Swan and has held 
a Bronze award since 2008, in recognition of good employment practice to 
address gender equality in higher education and research. The Department 
achieved its own Athena Swan Bronze award in 2017 and is a registered 
supporter of the London Mathematical Society’s Good Practice Scheme. We 
are thus committed to the Athena Swan Charter, which recognises and 
celebrates good employment practice undertaken to address gender 
equality in higher education and research. We will consider applications 
to work on a part-time, flexible and job-share basis wherever possible 
and habitually agree to flexible modes of working.

Informal enquiries can be made to the Head of Department, Professor 
Alexander Belton (a.belton at lancaster.ac.uk) and the Research Theme Leads 
for Combinatorics and Geometric Rigidity, Dr Tony Nixon 
(a.nixon at lancaster.ac.uk) and Dr Bernd Schulze (b.schulze at lancaster.ac.uk).

Please use the covering letter to explain your suitability for this role 
and how you will contribute to the Department. General information about 
the Department can be found at http://www.lancaster.ac.uk/maths/ .
