We are an internationally leading research institute in the field of pure mathematics with about 700 guest scientists per year. We invite applications of outstanding mathematicians for a position as Max Planck Research Group Leader (W 2) (m/f/d) with a 5-year appointment. The remuneration is based on remuneration group W 2 of the Federal Civil Service Remuneration Act (Bundesbesoldungsgesetz – BBesG).

Candidates must have a PhD and several years of postdoctoral research experience in pure mathematics.

The Max Planck Institute for Mathematics cooperates closely with the University of Bonn and is part of the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics. Teaching and advising is possible and strongly encouraged.

The funding period for Max Planck Research Groups is limited to five years and can be extended after successful evaluation.

The Max Planck Society has set itself the target of employing more individuals with severe disabilities. We explicitly welcome applications from individuals with severe disabilities.

The Max Planck Society wants to increase the proportion of women in the areas in which they are under-represented. We therefore explicitly ask women to apply.
