The Royal Ontario Museum (ROM) is Canada’s pre-eminent international museum and houses
some of Canada’s most important collections in both Natural History and World Cultures. The
Department houses Canada’s largest mineral and gem collections, an important meteorite collection, and
a comprehensive petrology collection.
Mineralogist
Natural History Department
The ROM invites applications from world-class scholars for the position of the Teck Chair in Mineralogy, to
conduct field and collections-related research, and the strategic acquisition of new specimens, and to present
these holdings through future exhibitions, gallery rotations and public programming. The Teck Endowed
Chair in Mineralogy was established in 2007 thanks to the generous support of Teck Resources Limited.
As a leading contributor to the new, public-facing Centre of Discovery for Earth and Space, the successful
candidate will have demonstrated skills in transfer of scientific concepts and information in a manner that
engages visitors to the museum and the general public, on site and on-line.
The successful applicant will be expected to: provide dynamic leadership for the Earth Sciences staff; develop a
program of externally funded scholarly research and publications; curate and continue building the disciplinary
collection of minerals; and have demonstrated ability and interest in the development and rotation of new
permanent galleries and major exhibitions, traveling exhibits, science education, and public engagement.
Applicants must have a Ph.D. in mineralogy, and be well versed in the geological sciences; have a record
of scholarly publication in peer-reviewed journals; be qualified for cross-appointment to the University of
Toronto; and be eligible for NSERC funding in support of research (i.e., a proven record of successful grant
applications). Experience in a museum or equivalent environment is preferable.
Salary and years in rank are commensurate with experience, as stipulated in the Collective Agreement
between the ROM and ROM Curatorial Association.
Applications will be accepted until 5:00 p.m., March 29, 2013. Applicants should provide a curriculum
vitae, a summary of their research, and an outline of their proposed program of research, and arrange
to have three confidential letters of recommendation sent on their behalf, to: Mara Gunner, Human
Resources Coordinator, Human Resources Department, Royal Ontario Museum,
100 Queen’s Park, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5S 2C6.
Fax: 416-586-5827. All qualified candidates are
encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and
permanent residents will be given priority.
