Required for two days a week on a self-employed basis. Candidates must have a strong mathematics background and have a keen interest in helping to promote the study of mathematics and statistics amongst young people. www.mathscareers.org.uk is produced by the Council for the Mathematical Sciences and is a major part of the initiative to encourage more youngsters to appreciate why they study mathematics and the opportunities that are available to them. The website will be expanded during the next three years to provide additional resources for students, teachers and careers advisors. The ultimate aim is to make this the primary site for careers information on the mathematical sciences. Candidates must have excellent communications skills and be prepared to attend regular meetings in London, although there may be occasions when meetings may be held elsewhere. Experience of developing/editing websites (in particular those aimed at the mathscareers target audience – 11 to 21 years old) is essential. The salary will be in the region of £ 120 per day. This vacancy has recently arisen due to the present editor moving to a full-time position at the end of June. It is planned that the new editor will be in place soon, and potential applicants are requested to respond quickly. Closing Date: Applications must be submitted by 15th June. However, it is hoped to make an appointment as soon as possible so early submissions are recommended. Please send your application letter and CV to: susan.bolton@ima.org.uk (preferred) Or alternatively, please contact: posted 18/05/07 |
