Research Officer in Algorithms and Optimisation
LSE's Department of Mathematics is looking to appoint a Research Officer
on the NWO Vidi Grant Project 'Usable Algorithms for Network
Optimization' working with Principal Investigator Dr Neil Olver. The
start date is flexible, but not later than September 2021. More
information about the scope of the project and the research interests of
Dr Neil Olver can be found at http://nolver.net.
The successful applicant will demonstrate research interests and

discrete optimisation. They will show evidence of developing a body of
good quality publications in well-recognised peer reviewed outlets
through independent original research, and be able to communicate their
research findings effectively to a range of audiences. They will hold
(or be near completion of) a PhD in a discipline relevant to
optimisation, such as Mathematics, Computer Science, or Operations
Research by September 2021.
