Who We’re Looking For
Maximice sus posibilidades de que su candidatura sea seleccionada asegurándose de que su CV y sus habilidades se ajustan al perfil.
My client is looking for a computational chemist with experience modelling surface and adsorbate interactions, particularly where external stimuli drive surface modification. You’re someone who enjoys tackling complex, multi-variable problems in a fast-moving, collaborative environment, with a natural curiosity to continuously learn and adapt.
The Role
In this role, you will play a key part in advancing material modelling capabilities, with responsibilities including:
Developing models to understand interactions between advanced materials and excited atomic or molecular species, enabling quantitative validation of physical processes.
Building and refining simulation frameworks across a range of material systems, incorporating activation mechanisms, defect formation, and their impact on downstream performance.
Collaborating closely with internal teams and external partners to optimise material behaviour and overall system outcomes.
Requirements
PhD in Computational Chemistry, Physics, or a related discipline, with a strong emphasis on quantum-level modelling (e.g. surface chemistry, bond dissociation, adsorbate systems).
Strong grounding in core chemical principles, particularly surface and interface phenomena.
Hands-on experience with quantum simulation approaches such as density functional theory (DFT), molecular orbital methods, or similar techniques.
Preferred Experience
Exposure to surface modification driven by photons, electrons, or other energetic particles.
1–2 years of postdoctoral or industry experience.
Experience working alongside experimental teams or in lab-based environments.
Proficiency in Python or similar scientific computing tools.
Any experience with advanced material systems used in patterning or fabrication environments is highly advantageous.
Following your application Jake Phillips, a specialist recruiter will discuss the opportunity with you in detail. Jake will be more than happy to answer any questions relating to the industry and the potential for your career growth. The conversation can also progress further to discussing other opportunities, which are also available right now or will be imminently becoming available.
