Manor Road and Nuffield College, Oxford

The Department of Economics, in partnership with Nuffield College, offers full-time Postdoctoral Research Fellowship openings for candidates who hold a PhD in a relevant field or are close to completion. The fellowships offer early career researchers the opportunity to develop their research portfolio within one of the world’s leading Economics departments and so strengthen their future position in the academic job market.

The postholder is required to perform the following duties to the satisfaction of the Head of Department: to engage in research of a quality commensurate with publication in leading international economics journals; to develop and manage their own programme of independent research; to present their research at international conferences and research workshops; to play a full role in the intellectual life  of the department (both during term-time and vacations) including working collaboratively with academic colleagues in areas of shared research interest, and taking part in department seminars and workshops; to provide up to 60 units of graduate or undergraduate teaching per annum (60 units is equivalent to 20 hours of lectures or 30 hours of TA-format class teaching) within the areas covered by the Department of Economics, as requested by the Head of Department; to cooperate in the administration of teaching and research.

You will hold a PhD in a relevant field or be close to completion. You will have the ability to present research findings effectively, to innovate and work effectively with colleagues and play a part in developing the department’s research programme, as well being able to teach high-achieving and challenging graduate students.

Fellowships are full-time and tenable for a fixed-term of 3 years from September 2018. Fellows gain teaching experience via a minimal teaching load which will not exceed 30 hours annually. Consideration will be given to any field of specialisation.
