positions at QUT stats
Chris Drovandi sent me the information that the Statistics Group, QUT, Brisbane, is advertising for three positions:
- Professor in Statistical Data Science (Remuneration package from $AUD206,729 per year)
- Lecturer in Statistical Data Science (Remuneration package of $AUD108,796 to $AUD129,209 per year)
- PhD Scholarship in Computational Bayesian Statistics ($AUD35,000 per year tax-free for 3 years, with an additional $AUD5,000 per year for project costs)
This is a great opportunity, a very active group, and a great location, which I visited several times, so if interested apply before October 1.

I second the view that this is a pretty nice place to live/work.
Weird thing that’s happened in the almost decade since I lived there: they never used to bundle up the superannuation etc into the quoted “renumeration package”. They just used to quote the salary. I guess this is to make it more comparable with international salary quotes. Still Australia is a pretty well-paid place for academics!
This is especially the lecturer job, as there is no concept of “tenure track” in Aus! You also never have to fund a % of your salary, like you do in the States.
