Research Officer
(Ref: BU03877)
Salary: £38,249 - £45,413 p.a. (Grade 7)
Applications are invited for a fixed term, full time Research Officer working in the Nuclear Futures Institute within the School of Computer Science and Engineering at Bangor University.
The Research Officer will carry out research relating to neutronics and core design for molten salt reactors. Duties will include safety analysis of the graphite-free fluoride-salt high temperature reactor (FHR) system (WP3) being investigated in this project. This includes salt-freezing prevention, decay heat removal analysis and assessment of online refuelling strategy. And experimental design for refuelling-related safety including heat transfer modelling, flow analysis, and stringer drop simulation.
Candidates should be educated to PhD in reactor physics, (or be close to the completion) or possess equivalent experience relevant to the role, and have previous experience simulating nuclear systems with multi-physics modelling methods.
The successful candidate will be expected to commence as soon as possible and the role is available until 31st May 2028.
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: 22 October 2025
Informal enquiries can be made by contacting: Prof Simon Middleburgh Co-Director of the Nuclear Futures Institute - s.middleburgh@bangor.ac.uk
