Tenure-track posts in Earth Observation, University of Leeds, UK

The School of Earth and Environment seeks to appoint two Academic
Research Fellows to strengthen its research in Earth Observation of
geohazards and the cryosphere.

Academic Research Fellowships are tenure-tracked positions, and provide
an opportunity for researchers with outstanding potential to establish
an independent academic career. Each fellowship lasts for five years
with reduced teaching and administrative responsibilities, and there is
an expectation that you will progress to an established academic post
during this period. You will have an excellent research track record in
Earth Observation of either geohazards (post 1) or the cryosphere (post
2), together with the vision and drive to develop a prestigious research
portfolio.

Successful applicants will become members of either the Centre for the
Observation and Modelling of Earthquakes, Volcanoes and Tectonics
(COMET; http://comet.nerc.ac.uk) or the Centre for Polar Observation and
Modelling (CPOM; http://www.cpom.org). COMET and CPOM are Earth
Observation research centres of excellence based at the University of
Leeds and funded by the UK Natural Environment Research Council. As a
member of either centre, you will have the opportunity to direct
activities of scientific and technical support staff, and you will be
expected to work closely with our investigators based at Leeds and at
other UK Universities to enhance the performance, stature and profile of
our research.

Closing date for applications is 31st March 2014

Salary will be on University Grade 8 (£37,012- £44,166 p.a. )

Informal enquiries may be made to Professor Tim Wright, Director of
COMET (t.j.wright<at>leeds.ac.uk <t.j.wright<at>leeds.ac.uk>) or
Professor Andy Shepherd, Director of CPOM (A.Shepherd<at>leeds.ac.uk
<A.Shepherd<at>leeds.ac.uk>).
