We are seeking a graduate researcher or equivalent professional to join an
exciting new project at the interface between developmental psychology,
education, and neurodiversity. The position will involve supporting an
interdisciplinary longitudinal project that will employ standardised
assessments, experimental measures (e.g., child friendly iPad-based
assessments, online assessments), and mixed methods to understand cognitive
and educational contributors to early mathematical learning for neurodivergent
children. Our focus will be three groups of children with genetic conditions
diagnosed early in life (Down’s syndrome, fragile X syndrome, or Williams
syndrome), to understand both general and specific contributors to good
outcomes leading to independence in early numeracy for neurodivergent
children.
This position will involve joining an extended team connecting the University
of Oxford, Surrey University and University College London, to support
recruitment, project management, participatory science, and knowledge exchange
for the project.
This post is part-time fixed term for up to 36 months, working at 0.2 FTEs (1
day per week). Other part-time pro rata arrangements might be considered.
A keen interest in developmental psychology and education are essential, and
either a keen interest or prior experience of working with children with
genetic conditions, intellectual disability, or neurodiversity would be an
advantage. Excellent communication skills, interests in working as part of an
interdisciplinary team, and the ability to manage recruitment and
administrative activities are essential. The post-holder will be involved in
all aspects of the research project, with a particular focus on recruitment,
public engagement, and facilitating knowledge exchange activities. Prior
experience of primary school settings in the context of teaching / recruitment
and / or public engagements is essential. The successful applicant would be
principally based in Oxford, working with Prof Gaia Scerif, but they will
benefit from being embedded in an extended research team for this project,
including co-PIs Prof Emily Farran (University of Surrey) and Prof Jo van
Herwegen (University College London).
For any questions relating to the project please contact Gaia Scerif
(gaia.scerif@psy.ox.ac.uk).
The closing date for applications is midday on Tuesday 2nd April 2024. It is
anticipated that interviews will be held on 22nd April 2024. It is hoped the
post-holder will be able to start in post on 1st June 2024 or as soon as
possible thereafter.
Applications for this vacancy are to be made online. As part of your
application, you will be required to upload a covering letter explaining how
you meet the job requirements, as well as a CV and details of two referees.

Grade 36S: University salary £52,815 - £70,918 per annum plus substantial
additional benefits including (currently) £3,000 p.a. College allowance. An
additional allowance of £3,078 p.a. would be made upon award of the title
of Full Professor. There is also the possibility of a market pay supplement
(up to £10,000 p.a.) for suitably qualified clinical candidates, subject to
approval by the Senior Appointments Panel.
Overview of the post
The Department of Experimental Psychology recruiting an Associate Professor of Clinical Psychology, to
take a leading role in developing and implementing rigorous clinical psychology research with a clear
trajectory to impact on patient benefits. This is a joint appointment with Reuben College, and the
successful candidate will also be appointed to a Fellowship by Special Election at Reuben College. For
suitably qualified and experienced individuals, the title of full Professor may be awarded on appointment.
Oxford has a long tradition of excellence in the psychological sciences. We seek to appoint an individual
with an outstanding research and teaching record in the subject areas of clinical psychology. We welcome
research that helps integrate clinical and experimental psychology, to bring tangible societal benefits, in
line with our commitment to supporting impact.
The appointee is jointly based in the Department of Experimental Psychology and the Institute of Clinical
Psychology. There are strong links with other cognate departments or institutes across the medical, social
and mathematical sciences. We are interested in appointing an individual who may foster new links, in
the spirit of our new departmental home in the Life and Mind Building where we will seek to capitalise
on cross-disciplinary expertise to understand and address major global challenges.
The person appointed will be expected to engage in advanced study and research in clinical psychological
science, and to give high-quality clinical research supervision at graduate level and advanced clinical
psychology exposure at undergraduate level. They will have a strong commitment to open and
reproducible science and be committed to educating students and training the next generation of clinical
research leaders. There are strong links between the university and Oxford NHS Trusts. Suitably qualified
candidates have the option of conducting some clinical work linked to their research interests.
We expect to appoint at the level of Professor or Associate Professor (the Professor title subject to the
Recognition of Distinction Exercise). The appointee will be a leading authority in their field,
demonstrating a sustained career of leading research and possessing breadth and depth of specialist
knowledge. The post holder will report to the Head of Department.
The University of Oxford uses the grade of Associate Professor for most of its senior academic
appointments. Associate Professors are eligible for consideration through regular recognition of
distinction exercises for award of the title of full professor. This promotion in status is dependent on
merit and does not normally occur until some years after reappointment to retirement. In exceptional
cases, where the candidate has previously established an academic standing at an appropriate level of
distinction, the title of full professor may be awarded at the time of appointment.
This is a joint appointment with Reuben College, where the appointee will be elected to a co-terminous
Fellowship at Reuben College. As such, the posholder will participate in the governance, intellectual life
and interdisciplinary activities of this graduate College, the most recently founded at Oxford, and
particularly, but not exclusively, with students and Fellows within its ‘Cellular Life’ theme. In both
Department and College the postholder will also support the wider aims of each institution, including
contribution to relevant mental wellbeing goals, and the building of an equal, diverse and inclusive
culture.
The University of Oxford is a member of the Athena SWAN Charter for the advancement of gender
equality: representation, progression and success for all. The Department of Experimental Psychology
holds a departmental Silver Athena SWAN award in recognition of its efforts to introduce organisational
and cultural practices that promote gender equality and create a better working environment for both
men and women. All 16 departments within the Medical Sciences Division hold Silver Athena SWAN
awards. The University holds an Athena SWAN silver award at institutional level. Contact
equality@admin.ox.ac.uk for further information about Athena SWAN at the University of Oxford.
If you would like to discuss this post and find out more about joining the academic community at Oxford,
please contact the Head of the Department of Experimental Psychology, Professor Matthew Rushworth,
via the EA to the Head of the Department (hod.office@psy.ox.ac.uk). Queries regarding the College
association can be sent to Professor Mark Coles, Theme Lead for Cellular Life at the College
(mark.coles@reuben.ox.ac.uk).
All enquiries will be treated in strict confidence and will not form part of the selection decision.
The role of Associate Professor at Oxford
Associate Professor is the main academic career grade at Oxford with a focus on research and teaching,
spanning the full range of professor grades in the USA (‘assistant’ to ‘full’). Associate Professors are
appointed jointly by a University department/faculty and an Oxford college, and you will have a contract
with both.
Associate Professors are full members of University departments/faculties and college governing bodies
playing a role in the democratic governance of the University and their college. You will join a lively,
intellectually stimulating and multi-disciplinary community which performs to the highest international
levels in research and teaching, with extraordinary levels of innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship.
The post-holder will be expected to contribute to research supervision of students on the Doctorate of
Clinical Psychology (DClinPsych) which runs throughout much of the year but there is a degree of
flexibility in the organisation of duties and generous sabbatical leave to balance teaching and research
(please see the Benefits, Terms and Conditions section for further details). There is the potential for
temporary changes to the balance of duties between College and University to enable a focus on different
aspects of work at different stages in your career.
2
Oxford offers many opportunities for professional development in research and teaching. Associate
Professors may apply for the title of full Professor in annual exercises. If the title is conferred, you will
also have access to professorial merit pay opportunities. In exceptional cases, the title of full Professor
may be awarded on appointment.
Appointments are confirmed as permanent on successful completion of a review during the first five
years. The vast majority of Associate Professors successfully complete this initial review.

Academic context of the post
The Department of Experimental Psychology
The Department of Experimental Psychology at Oxford was founded in 1898 and has a long and
prestigious history and is fortunate to be home to a number of current world-leading research groups,
and continues to be among the top-ranked Psychology departments worldwide. In the 2021 Research
Excellence Framework (REF) Exercise the Psychology, Neuroscience and Psychiatry REF submission from
Oxford was judged to have many outstanding strengths in the research it produced, its research
environment, and in terms of the impact of its research on wider society. Departmental turnover for
20/21 was in excess of £15.5 million. Research in the Department is organised into 5 research groupings
roughly equal in size: Behavioural Neuroscience / Cognition and Perception / Developmental Psychology
/ Social Psychology / Psychological and Brain Health.
In 2018 the core of the department relocated to the Radcliffe Observatory Quarter where we now occupy
two floors of New Radcliffe House and the Anna Watts Building. The Anna Watts building houses the
developmental research centre and BabyLab, and facilities for EEG, TMS, and tDCS, along with multiple
laboratories with eye-movement recording equipment. The Oxford Centre for Anxiety Disorders and
Trauma (OXCADAT) is located at The Old Rectory, and we also have some research groups located in the
Tinsley Building in the Science Area of the city. Experimental Psychology has good access to a wide variety
of special populations including: mothers and babies, schools, older participants, acquired and
developmental neuropsychological patients, and individuals with psychological problems.
In 2024 the department will move to its new home in The Life and Mind Building. This exciting
development will provide exceptional research and teaching facilities along with space for public
engagement and outreach. There is a dedicated area for mental health research with clinical populations.
It also offers renewed commitment to work across disciplinary boundaries to further knowledge across
the psychological and biological sciences and to solve major global challenges.
Through both the University and colleges, Oxford places a high priority on teaching quality. At the
undergraduate level, the Department is the focus for lectures, classes, practicals, and research projects.
It is a centre used by the undergraduates from all colleges for the Experimental Psychology (EP),
Psychology, Philosophy and Linguistics (PPL), and Biomedical Science (BMS) courses. The Department
provides lecture rooms, IT facilities, and laboratories for experimental and project work.
The Department also hosts two MSc courses, the MSc in Psychological Research and the MSc in
Neuroscience. The Department also hosts the Doctorate in Clinical Psychology course. We have a thriving
community of graduate research students and a commitment to supporting early-career researchers.
For more information please visit: http://www.psy.ox.ac.uk.
The Department of Experimental Psychology is strongly committed to equality and valuing diversity, and
we operate a flexible working policy for all staff. The Department holds a departmental Silver Athena
Swan award to recognise advancement of gender equality: representation, progression and success for
all.
The Oxford Centre for Psychological Health and Oxford Institute for Clinical Psychology
Training and Research.
The Oxford Centre for Psychological Health is comprised of several components, including the Oxford
Cognitive Therapy Centre (OCTC), a NHS national specialist psychological treatment clinic, and the Oxford
Institute for Clinical Psychology Training and Research (“the Institute”). The Institute is based at the
Warneford Hospital in Headington, where it is located in purpose built unit, the Isis Education Centre.
The Doctorate in Clinical Psychology is a partnership between the University and the Trust, and is a full
Postgraduate Research degree, commissioned by NHS England. The 2023 intake was 52 students, and the
numbers are expected to increase to 60 per year. Teaching takes place in a variety of locations due to the
7
expansion of numbers in recent years. There is a staff team of around 30 psychologists and 10
administrative staff; further staffing increases are anticipated as expansion continues. OCTC has a further
staff team of internationally recognised CBT specialists, and the specialist clinic overlaps in with the other
units in terms of staffing alongside expert therapists of its own. OCTC also runs a range of University
courses in CBT based in the University Department of Continuing Education, as well as NHS commissioned
courses.
Reuben College
There are 39 self-governing and independent colleges at Oxford, giving both academic staff and students
the benefits of belonging to a small, interdisciplinary community as well as to a large, internationallyrenowned institution. The collegiate system fosters a strong sense of community, bringing together leading academics and students across subjects, and from different cultures and countries.
The founding of Reuben College in 2019, supported by a generous benefaction from the Reuben
Foundation of £71 million (including £15 million for graduate scholarships), has offered an exciting
opportunity to bring together researchers and postgraduate students focused on exploring some of the
most important questions of the 21st century. Reuben College provides an environment that stimulates
and facilitates interdisciplinary research, while emphasising the qualities of innovation, leadership and
entrepreneurship. It supports a community of Fellows and graduates who embrace opportunities to
interact with researchers beyond the boundaries of their own disciplines and to engage with colleagues
beyond the realm of academia.
To promote the ethos and practice of interdisciplinary interaction, there is an initial focus on four research
clusters, whose themes have been chosen for their wide reach across the University, their strongly
interdisciplinary nature, Oxford’s existing and potential strengths in these areas, and their innovation and
entrepreneurship potential. The initial clusters focus on the topics of (a) Artificial Intelligence & Machine
Learning, (b) Environmental Change, (c) Cellular Life, and (d) Ethics & Values. These clusters have natural
synergies, enabling cross-cutting discussions and research collaborations to emerge. Each of the four areas is
interpreted as broadly as possible, as the College is keen to attract researchers from all four of the University’s
Academic Divisions. The four themes are complemented by a number of strategic stands, notably in
Innovation and Entrepreneurship and in Public Engagement in Research.
As a new college, we are building a community of people and practice that recognises the importance of
equality and diversity in our community and in our intellectual endeavours. All Fellows are expected to
subscribe proactively to the college ethos and to commit to developing both its intellectual and outreach
activities. The College Fellows together foster a culture of interdisciplinary exchange through regular college
events, such as seminars, workshops and reading groups.
For more information please visit: www.reuben.ox.ac.uk.
The Medical Sciences Division
The Medical Sciences Division is an internationally recognized centre of excellence for biomedical and
clinical research and teaching. We are the largest academic division in the University of Oxford.
World-leading programmes, housed in state-of-the-art facilities, cover the full range of scientific
endeavour from the molecule to the population. With our NHS partners we also foster the highest
possible standards in patient care.

The University of Oxford
Oxford’s departments and colleges aim to lead the world in research and education for the benefit of
society both in the UK and globally. Oxford’s researchers engage with academic, commercial and cultural
partners across the world to stimulate high-quality research and enable innovation through a broad range
of social, policy and economic impacts.
Oxford’s self-governing community of international scholars includes Professors, Associate Professors,
other college tutors, senior and junior research fellows and over 2,500 other University research staff.
Research at Oxford combines disciplinary depth with an increasing focus on inter-disciplinary and multidisciplinary activities addressing a rich and diverse range of issues.
We believe our strengths lie both in empowering individuals and teams to address fundamental questions
of global significance, while providing all our staff with a welcoming and inclusive workplace that enables
everyone to develop and do their best work. Recognising that diversity is a great strength, and vital for
innovation and creativity, we aspire to build a truly diverse community which values and respects every
individual’s unique contribution.
While Oxford has long traditions of scholarship, it is also forward-looking, creative and cutting-edge.
Oxford is one of Europe's most entrepreneurial universities. It consistently has the highest external
research income of any university in the UK (the most recent figures are available at
www.ox.ac.uk/about/organisation/finance-and-funding) and is ranked first in the UK for university spinouts, with more than 130 spin-off companies created to date. Oxford is also recognised as a leading
supporter of social enterprise.
Oxford admits undergraduate students with the intellectual potential to benefit fully from the small
group learning to which Oxford is deeply committed. Meeting in small groups with their tutor,
undergraduates are exposed to rigorous scholarly challenge and learn to develop their critical thinking,
their ability to articulate their views with clarity, and their personal and intellectual confidence. They
receive a high level of personal attention from leading academics.
Oxford has a strong postgraduate student body which now numbers over 10,000. Postgraduates are attracted to Oxford by the international standing of the faculty, by the rigorous intellectual training on
offer, by the excellent research and laboratory facilities available, and by the resources of the museums
and libraries, including one of the world’s greatest libraries, the Bodleian.
Join us and you will find a unique, democratic and international community, a great range of staff benefits
and access to a vibrant array of cultural activities in the beautiful city of Oxford. For more information,

Reuben College Benefits, Terms and Conditions
The postholder will be elected to a coterminous Fellowship by Special Election at the College, with probationary period and renewal assessed in tandem with the associated University post. However, a Fellowship at the College does not itself constitute employment and does not confer any rights to employment with the University. Fellows are required to inform the President and Senior Tutor of the College if
they are given notice under their University contract of employment: any Fellowship will expire automatically on the same dates as the expiry of a contract of employment with the University.
The postholder will receive the following College benefits:
An annual allowance (of currently £3,000 p.a.). This can currently be paid either directly (for nonTier 2 postholders only) and thus will be taxable, or as a research allowance (to support, for
example, conferences, events, or research costs).
Subsidised dining and luncheon rights (in accordance with the facilities available at the time).
The right to bring guests to college meals, subject to capacity, and at their own costs.
Membership of the Common Room.
Benefits will continue as normal during any period of family leave, or sickness absence but will be suspended
for the period of any research or other leave (excepting the above) during which the postholder elects not
to fulfil their college duties. All decisions in these regards will be taken by the President in consultation with
the Senior Tutor, with a view to promoting fairness and consistency of treatment amongst the Fellows.
As a Fellow by Special Election, the postholder will be a member of the College’s Governing Body and is
required to hold the Fellowship under the terms of the College Statutes and By-laws in force. All Fellows
are thus bound by the relevant policies and procedures of the College as published on the College’s website and in internal directories and the College has the right to terminate any Fellowship with immediate
effect if these are not adhered to.
Fellows may not hold a Governing Body Fellowship at any other college concurrently with their Fellowship
at the College. However, since the College is at present a Society of the University, it does not hold charitable status in its own right, and so Reuben College Fellows are not charitable trustees of the College.
Offer of employment
Applications for this post will be considered by a selection committee containing representatives from
the Department of Experimental Psychology, the Medical Sciences Division, and Reuben College. The
selection committee is responsible for conducting all aspects of the recruitment and selection process; it
does not, however, have the authority to make the final decision as to who should be appointed. The
final decision will be made by the Medical Sciences Divisional Board and the Governing Body of the
College on the basis of a recommendation made by the selection committee. No offer of appointment
will be valid, therefore, until and unless the recommendation has been approved by both the Divisional
Board and the Governing Body, and a formal contractual offer has been made.
