The Department of Physics is recruiting to the Hooke Professorship of Experimental Physics, from September 2024 or as soon as possible thereafter. The successful candidate will also be offered a Professorial Fellowship at St Hugh’s College. The Hooke Professorship is a premier appointment, one of nine Statutory Professorships in the Department of Physics.
We are seeking a world-leading researcher in an area of experimental quantum physics, with a preference for quantum computation that will build on, or be complementary to, Oxford’s research portfolio in Atomic and Laser Physics. The Sub Department of Atomic and Laser Physics integrates experimental and theoretical activities, with a developing interest in high precision laboratory experiments for fundamental physics. It is home to the Quantum Computing and Simulation (QCS) Hub, part of the UK National Quantum Technologies Programme. You will join a lively and stimulating research community that performs at the highest international levels in research and publications and will have access to the excellent research facilities which Oxford offers including state-of-the-art laboratories.
You will provide outstanding intellectual leadership and play a prominent role in shaping the future research strategy of the department. You will conduct world-leading original research and attract significant research funding. A commitment to excellence in teaching is essential. The department aims to forge strong links with industry and you will play a significant role in promoting the societal and commercial application of research where appropriate.
