Returning to Oxford he was a research officer (1974–78), teaching lecturer at Christ Church (1976–78), Senior Research Fellow at Merton (1977-79), and Fellow and Tutor at Balliol and University Lecturer in Physics (1979–90). He was appointed Reader in Experimental Physics in 1990 and Professor of Experimental Physics in 1991. He was also Head of Particle and Nuclear Physics 1991–96 and Chair of the Department of Physics 1997–99. He was appointed Principal of Brasenose on 1 October 2003. He is also Deputy Director General and Research Director of Collider Programmes at Organisation européenne pour la recherche nucléaire (CERN). He was Visiting Professor at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel in 1982, Science and Engineering Research Council Senior Research Fellow 1982–87, a guest scientist at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory 1986-87, and held an Alexander von Humboldt Foundation Research Award 1995/96. HM The Queen appointed Roger Cashmore Companion of the Most Distinguished Order of St Michael and St George for services to international cooperation in particle physics in the New Year Honours List 2004. He was awarded the C.V. Boys Prize in 1983. He was elected a Fellow of the Institute of Physics in 1985, a member of Academia Europa in 1992, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts in 1996, and a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1998.
