Are you ready to join a growing research group in energy storage and batteries?  Do you have a strong background in chemistry or process engineering with experience in inks and coatings development, and/or battery cell design and manufacture? We are looking for a Project Engineer to drive our electrode and cell scale-up production and test activities with our industrial and academic partners.

Using the resources of our Energy Innovation Centre (EIC), you will join the team working on the Battery Scale-Up line to deliver projects focused on upscaling from a low volume laboratory scale, up to high volume production working specifically on the Advanced Material Battery Industrialisation Centre (AMBIC) and Flexible Pilot Line (FPL) process equipment. The project will deliver breakthrough knowledge for the benefit of all battery manufacturing sectors, including automotive, aerospace and consumer electronic. Our pilot line facilities are unique within the UK and allow manufacturing and scientific challenges such as improving energy density, power density, quality, cost, functional safety, reliability and improving lifetime to be addressed for the benefit of industry.

We will consider applications for employment on a part-time or other flexible working basis, even where a position is advertised as full-time, unless there are operational or other objective reasons why it is not possible to do so.
