Job description:
Join the ESRF, the European Synchrotron!
 
The ESRF, the European Synchrotron, is an international research facility based in Grenoble, France. Thanks to high-level, innovative engineering and cutting-edge vision, the ESRF is recognised as one of the top research institutions worldwide, welcoming more than 6 500 scientists every year in fields such as biology, medicine, chemistry, earth and environmental sciences, cultural heritage, materials and surface science, and physics. The ESRF is supported by 21 countries and employs 600 staff.

We are currently seeking to recruit a:

Beamline Scientist in Chemistry
for the X-ray absorption spectroscopy beamlines ID24 and BM23
Time-limited position (5 years maximum)
ref. 2171

JOB DESCRIPTION
You will play a major role in the operation and further development of the ID24 and BM23 beamline as well as in the other activities of the group.
The beamlines’ mission is to provide state-of-the-art facilities for time-resolved and extreme conditions XAS. In the field of catalysis, the unique time–resolved capabilities of the facilities allow for operando studies in the timescale down to microseconds. Current developments include synchronous time-resolved XAS coupled to DRIFTS, multi-wavelength UV-Vis and Mass Spectrometry.
As a beamline scientist, your missions are the following:
  • Participate in technical upgrades and development of the chemistry/catalysis facilities.
  • Act as local contact with the opportunity for collaborative work at the frontiers of the field.
  • Develop your own research programme exploiting ID24 and BM23’s unique technical possibilities in close collaboration with the beamline team
Further information may be obtained from Sakura Pascarelli (tel.: +33 (0)4 76 88 21 47, email: sakura@esrf.fr).

PROFILE, SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
  • PhD and several years of postdoctoral experience in chemistry, physics, or another closely related field
  • Experience in x-ray absorption spectroscopy and in particular EXAFS is mandatory.
  • Experience with complementary spectroscopic (IR, UV-Vis, etc.) methods would be desirable.
  • Ability to interact with multi-disciplinary staff and facility users
  • Good time management skills and ability to prioritize
  • Proficiency in English (working language at the ESRF)
WORK CONDITIONS
The monthly salary may be complemented by additional allowances upon eligibility. The ESRF is an equal opportunity employer and encourages diversity.
