The University of Melbourne
Department of Mathematics and Statistics,
Faculty of Science Parkville Campus
Closing date: 30th April, 2009
The Australian Mathematical Sciences Institute (www.amsi.org.au)
was established in 2002. AMSI’s mission is to “promote and
strengthen the understanding and use of the mathematical
sciences in Australia’s culture, science and economy.”
The Director provides leadership in AMSI’s strategic directions
and programs with responsibility to the Members and the Board.
Appointment to this position may be a stand-alone fixed-term
appointment in its own right or a secondment from another post.
The level of appointment will be commensurate with the skills,
qualifications and experience of the appointee. Any suitable
appointee will be at Level E.
The appointee will be able to continue to pursue an active
research program if desired and to undertake the supervision
of postgraduate students under the auspices of one of the
Member universities, subject to the agreement of the Board.

research supervision, with the latter representing no more
than 20% of the total commitment.
