Summary
BANGOR UNIVERSITY
SCHOOL OF COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING
Research Officer in Atomistic Modelling
(Ref: BU03760)
Salary: £37,099 - £44,263 p.a. (Grade 7)
Applications are invited for a fixed-term, full-time Postdoctoral Research Officer in Atomistic Modelling working in the School of Computer Science and Engineering on a UKAEA project focusing on tritium mobility in lithium-based ceramics.
Duties will include leading a modelling-focused work package aimed at simulating the the microscopic mechanisms governing the mobility of tritium in the solid state and liaising with other group members involved in experimental work and systems-level simulation of tritium breeder blankets to maximise the utility of the atomistic simulations.
Candidates should possess or be close to completing a PhD in Physics or Chemistry (or have equivalent research experience) and have previous experience in atomistic simulations such as molecular dynamics or density functional theory.
The successful candidate will be expected to commence as soon as possible and the post is available for a period of 12 months.
This role will be located on campus at Bangor. Through our Dynamic Working framework, there will also be the option to spend some time working remotely (although remaining in the UK) to support work life balance, which will be discussed further with candidates at interview.
Applications will also be considered to carry out this role on a part-time or job share basis.
Applications will only be accepted via our on-line recruitment website, jobs.bangor.ac.uk. However, in cases of access issues due to disability, paper application forms are available by telephoning 01248 383865.
Closing date for applications: 05 June 2025
Informal enquiries can be made by contacting: Dr Cillian Cockrell, Lecturer in the School of Computer Science and Engineering, c.cockrell@bangor.ac.uk.
