Join us

We are always looking for talented and motivated people to join our group who want to:

Do high-quality, rigorous and impactful research.
Grow and develop themselves into becoming a better scientist and a more supportive colleague.
Collaborate and strengthen your colleagues in their growth and research.

Funded open PhD, Postdoctoral and Summer Student positions in the group are highlighted below. Interested candidates should first email Oliver for informal enquires; please include a CV and a covering letter outlining your research interests and why you are interested in the role.

If you are interested in a PhD / Postdoctoral Fellowship / Masters / Summer Student position in the group but none are listed then please send Oliver an email to discuss opportunities.

Who you are?

You are a person who is curious, conscientious, open-to-learning, proactive, willing-to-persevere, thorough and enthusiastic and you have good character and integrity.

Who we are as a group?

We aim to have a positive and meaningful impact on our world via the creation of innovative research and the development of people.

We have high standards for our work and our behaviour. These are important as we aim to do high-quality, rigorous research and because we aim to have a supportive and healthy group culture where all are welcome.
We respect each other and we communicate in an open and considerate manner. We also treat people outside of our group with dignity and respect.
Doing innovative research and undergoing growth as person are both good and worthwhile endeavours. These can be joyful processes but, at times, both can be hard and frustrating. Therefore we celebrate each other’s successes and we actively support one another through challenges.
The pathway to successful innovative research is, in part, built from failures. We are open and honest when experiments do not work and we use failure to deepen our understanding.
We recognise that as human beings we are not perfect and at times we fall short of who we wish to be. We acknowledge our own errors and we forgive one another.
