Faculty of Science and Technology
Ref: 6150

Based in Cambridge 

Competitive Salary

 

Our vibrant, modern University has ambitious plans for its future. Our two
main campuses in Cambridge and Chelmsford are being transformed with major
capital investments. With an annual income of £120m, 25,500 students and
2,000 staff, we are a major force for higher education in the East of
England.

 

We have world class and international levels of research activity in the
field of vision and eye research, as recognised by the recent RAE 2008
exercise. We now intend to consolidate this work within the Postgraduate
Medical Institute (PMI) and create a unit of research excellence in vision
and eye research. The Vision and Eye Research Unit will build on existing
research across various research groups within Anglia Ruskin University and
will develop further opportunities.  This is an exciting opportunity for a
distinguished academic to establish this unit and ensure it becomes a
recognised centre of international excellence in vision and eye research. 

 

You will be responsible for the strategy, management and development of the
unit as one of the priority areas within the PMI through strong research and
scholarship activities. You will ensure that the unit contributes
significantly to the vision and objectives of the PMI by initiating and
facilitating its key objectives.    


The successful candidate will be an internationally recognised researcher
with a background in vision and eye research. With a PhD or equivalent, you
will have a track record of successful leadership within a research focussed
environment, with the ability to establish, lead and develop a research team.
You will be a strategic and analytical leader with vision, integrity and
strong communication, financial and interpersonal skills.
