In 1969, he was appointed as professor of physical chemistry at Massey University, and was the first professor of chemistry at that institution. He later served as dean of science from 1984 to 1994. Following his retirement in 1995, he was conferred the title of professor emeritus. Malcolm was elected a Fellow of the New Zealand Institute of Chemistry (NZIC) in 1966, and served as president of the NZIC in 1977.
