Lecturer in Ecology or Zoology

Salary: Grade 8 (£51,573 - £59,996 p.a.)

This role will be based on the university campus, with scope for elements of the job to be undertaken in a hybrid manner. We are also open to discussing flexible working arrangements.

Are you an ambitious and experienced Ecologist or Zoologist motivated to carry out world-leading research and deliver an exceptional student experience in a research-intensive Russell Group University?

This role offers the opportunity to further develop your career within one of the UK’s leading research institutions, working as part of a supportive and interdisciplinary community within the School of Biology.

We are seeking a highly motivated individual who will lead research and teaching in the field of ecology or zoology, enhancing our research strengths in ecology, zoology, evolution, and conservation biology within the School of Biology.

We are particularly looking to expand our expertise by recruiting an academic who specialises in one or more of the following areas: biodiversity, conservation ecology, global change biology, quantitative ecology, zoology or a closely related discipline that integrates ecological and zoological perspectives.

Your role will be instrumental in expanding our Faculty's strategic research priorities by enhancing our core expertise through innovative research and collaboration. You will be expected to develop and maintain a strong network of local, national, and international contacts across academia, industry, conservation, and policy sectors. Your work will seek to bridge the gap between fundamental and applied research, aligning with our commitment to producing science with real‑world impact.

You will also contribute significantly to the development of outstanding graduates and scholars through innovative, high-quality teaching, supervision, and mentorship, while leading ground-breaking research in your field.

The primary criterion for your appointment will be demonstrated academic excellence. As a valued member of our team, you will have the opportunity to work in a dynamic and interdisciplinary environment, contributing to our vision of sustainable and impactful research.
