Job Details

The Department of Analytical, Environmental & Forensic Sciences in the School of Population Health & Environmental Sciences wish to appoint senior academic staff with expertise in analytical toxicology and applied research to our interdisciplinary Department.

Our research builds on the outstanding legacy of population health, environmental and forensic sciences. We are forging new connections between basic and experimental medicine, social sciences, informatics and data science to advance our methodological and empirical strengths and expertise across the university in the understanding of disease and to improve health (physical and mental) and wellbeing and care for patients and populations.

This senior academic post will have research leadership responsibilities within the Department including but not confined to laboratory investigations. The post holder will develop and lead their own research programme.

The role will include teaching responsibilities in biochemistry and analytical toxicology at Master’s level and responsibilities at postgraduate taught module level working closely with programme leaders in the Department. 

The post holder should be a nationally recognised Senior Lecturer scientist with a strong background in multidisciplinary research.

King's has an outstanding reputation for world-class teaching and cutting-edge research. In the 2014 Research Excellence Framework (REF) King’s was ranked 6th nationally in the ‘power’ ranking, which takes into account both the quality and quantity of research activity, and 7th for quality according to Times Higher Education rankings. Eighty-four per cent of research at King’s was deemed ‘world-leading’ or ‘internationally excellent’ (3* and 4*). The university is in the top seven UK universities for research earnings and has an overall annual income of more than £684 million.

King's has a particularly distinguished reputation in the humanities, law, the sciences (including a wide range of health areas such as psychiatry, medicine, nursing and dentistry) and social sciences including international affairs. It has played a major role in many of the advances that have shaped modern life, such as the discovery of the structure of DNA and research that led to the development of radio, television, mobile phones and radar.
