We are looking to recruit an STFC funded Postdoctoral Research Associate/Fellow position in one of the following areas: Early Universe Cosmology (including inflation, preheating, quantum field theory, phase transitions, topological defects and scattering amplitudes) and the Dark Universe and Gravity (including primordial black holes, axion like particles and light scalar fields, dark energy, modified gravity, strong gravity and numerical relativity).
If successful, you will have the opportunity to work with a diverse set of researchers in the Particle Cosmology and Astronomy groups in the School of Physics and Astronomy, and with the closely connected Gravity group in the School of Mathematical Sciences. You will also be a member of the Nottingham Centre of Gravity.
You will need to have, or be close to completion of, a PhD in physics or a related subject area, and have a track record of publishing and disseminating your work through conferences and seminars as appropriate to your career stage.
The University of Nottingham offers a wide range of employee benefits. More information can be found at: https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/hr/your-benefits/a-z-of-benefits/benefits-a-z.aspx.
As part of our commitment to improving equality, diversity, and inclusion within the school, shortlisted candidates will be given the opportunity to talk to a member of staff representing women, racially minoritized people, LGBTQIA+, or disabilities communities. This will be separate from the assessment process and will play no role in the decision to appoint.
This fixed term position is full time and will finish on March 31st 2027.
Applications should include a CV, publications list (if not included in the CV) and research proposal (up to 4 pages).
