Research Fellow in Solid-State Materials Chemistry or Energy Applications (110328-0325)

For informal queries, please email Professor Ricahrd Walton (Professor & Deputy Head of Department of Chemistry) at r.i.walton@warwick.ac.uk.

The Warwick Centre for Experimental Fuel Technology (CEFT) is aiming to develop innovative next generation fuel cell and battery technologies.

A key feature of the Centre’s work is that technology developments will be underpinned by fundamental understanding, either using a range of innovative techniques and workflows already available at Warwick (and some invented here) or by developing new methods.

The Centre is an exciting venture bringing together leading research groups in the Department of Chemistry, Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG) and the School of Engineering at the University of Warwick.

With world-leading expertise and facilities in electrochemistry, materials chemistry, spectroscopy, microscopy, modelling and battery and fuel cell construction and testing, we aim to develop next generation electrochemical energy technologies through holistic views of fuel cells (especially ammonia fuel cells) and metal and metal ion (Li, Na, Ca etc.) batteries, from the nanoscale to device level.

Other fuel cell and battery technologies can also be explored as part of the Centre.  

This role will help lead our efforts in materials synthesis and structural characterisation. 

This is a great opportunity for an individual with imaginative ideas and aspirations to make a significant contribution to strategically important and growing area at the University of Warwick that will have global impact and visibility.

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. 

CLOSING DATE: Sunday 06 April 2025 at 23:55 (GMT)
