The Role and the Department
A World Top 100 department, the Department of Chemistry at Durham is one of the very best in the UK, with an outstanding reputation for excellence in research, teaching and employability of our students. We are an active and vibrant department, with a strong cohort of early career academics and future leaders. We hold an Athena Swan Silver Award, recognising our commitment to gender equality. Our undergraduate programmes are ranked fifth in the Complete University Guide 2026. At postgraduate level, our students come from all over the world to carry out research.
Durham Chemistry is home to the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Soft Matter for Formulation and Industrial Innovation, (SOFI2). We are partners in the CDT in Molecular Sciences for Medicine (MoSMed) and the CDT in Renewable Energy Northeast Universities (ReNU).
Our research is focussed around three interdisciplinary grand challenge themes: Chemistry for Sustainability; Chemistry for Health; and Chemistry for Change. Within these themes, we have prioritised eight core Research Focus Areas: Synthesis, Catalysis and Process; Sustainable and Resilient (Bio) Chemistry; Materials Discovery; Theory, Computational and Data-Led Chemistry, Soft Matter, Polymers and Interfaces; Chemical Photonics, Spectroscopy and Sensors; Drugs and Medicinal Chemistry; and Agritech and Aquaculture. There is a strong culture of collaboration within the department and with other departments, institutes, and centres within the University, including the Institute for Data Science, the Biophysical Sciences Institute, the Durham Energy Institute, the Joint Quantum Centre (Durham and Newcastle Universities) and centres in Sustainable Chemistry, X-ray methods and Soft Matter. We have strong links with many Universities, Research Centres and Companies in the UK and overseas.
We are looking for an excellent Project Manager to support the administration and successful delivery of our £7m Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC)-funded Molecular Solid Solutions (MoSS) Programme Grant. The role involves working closely with Professor Aurora J Cruz Cabeza in the Chemistry Department at Durham, as well as supporting various other members of the team at Durham, Leeds and Manchester Universities, and liaising with the funder (EPSRC).
The position is part time, on a 60% FTE basis, for a maximum period of five years. The MoSS Project Manager will be based in the Chemistry Department at Durham University.
