Call for nominations and applications for the position of Deputy Director of the Fields Institute

This is a call for applications or nominations for the position of Deputy Director of the Fields Institute for a term of three to five years beginning July 1, 2010. The deputy director works closely with the director on all aspects of the Institute's oversight and program development.

Qualified candidates should be mathematical scientists with good management skills, an excellent research record, and a strong interest in developing the programs of the Institute. Women and members of under-represented groups are encouraged to apply.

In the past, this position has been filled by a mathematical scientist seconded from a local university, but we are also open to other strategies, such as using this as an opportunity to recruit new faculty to Ontario. Inquiries can be addressed to any member of the search committee: Edward Bierstone (bierston@fields.utoronto.ca), Tom Salisbury (salt@pascal.math.yorku.ca) and Mary Thompson (methomps@uwaterloo.ca)

A brief letter of nomination and a CV should be sent to:

Edward Bierstone
Director
Fields Institute

Toronto, ON M5T 3J1
