The School of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Sheffield is intending to support two applications for the Ernest Rutherford Fellowship in 2019/20. These are five-year fellowships awarded by the Science and Technology Facilities Council. It is the current policy of the Faculty of Science at the University of Sheffield that all successful applicants will be offered an open-ended academic position at the end of their Fellowship.
Details about the Ernest Rutherford Fellowships, and the Faculty of Science’s policy on long-term Research Fellows can be found on the following websites:

https://www.sheffield.ac.uk/faculty/science/research/independent-research-fellowships
Applications in the areas of Gravitation and Cosmology, and Solar and Solar-Terrestial Physics will be particularly welcomed.
Expressions of interest should be sent before midday on Monday 12th August to Professor Tom Bridgeland at the address t.bridgeland[AT]sheffield.ac.uk. These should include a full CV (a research proposal is not necessary at this stage).
The internal selection process will be completed by Monday 19 August, and the Fellowship application must be received by the STFC before Thursday 26 September.
