That is, the School of Mathematics at the University of Edinburgh is advertising permanent positions: https://www.maths.ed.ac.uk/school-of-mathematics/jobs/lectureship-readership-in-algebra-geometry-topolog Category theory is specifically mentioned as a possible subject area, and the ad also mentions the importance of glue: "The Hodge Institute is a large world-class group of mathematicians whose research interests lie in Algebra, Geometry and Topology and related fields such as Category Theory and Mathematical Physics. Applicants should demonstrate an outstanding research record and contribute to the productive and strong collaborative research environment in the Hodge Institute. Preference may be given to candidates who strengthen connections between different areas of research within the Hodge Institute or more broadly between the Hodge Institute and other parts of the School." The Hodge Institute is just our name for the set of people within the School who work on the subjects mentioned. We?re advertising for Lecturers or Readers. These are both permanent positions. Lecturer is where almost everyone starts their career, and Reader is more senior (the rough equivalent of a junior full professor in US terminology). Best wishes, Tom -- The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336. [For admin and other information see: http://www.mta.ca/~cat-dist/ ]
