The School of Biological Sciences invites applications for two tenured 
positions as Lecturer in Plant Molecular Sciences. Applicants for these 
positions should have a strong background and interest in plant biology and a 
track record of research in one or more of the following areas: plant 
development, physiology, cellular and molecular biology, biochemistry and 
metabolomics. Preferred candidates will have expertise in molecular genetics, 
use model plants and will be familiar with current trends in plant genomics, 
proteomics and/or metabolomics. The appointee is expected to collaborate with 
other researchers as well as to establish her/his own research portfolio which 
attracts funding and graduate students. The successful candidate is further 
expected to teach in the School's academic programme at both undergraduate and 
graduate levels. 

The School of Biological Sciences currently employs 180 staff and supervises 
120 PhD students. Facilities include greenhouses and chambers for plant growth 
in controlled environments, as well as state-of-the-art equipment centres for 
genomics, proteomics, mass spectrometry and molecular structure determination 
(see SBS web site: http://www.sbs.auckland.ac.nz/). The University is situated 
in the heart of Auckland, a modern lively city with a beautiful harbour and 
beaches, a warm climate and easy access to many outdoor activities.
