hela Sverige The Man Technology Environment Research Centre (MTM) at Örebro University focuses on applied research on chemical compounds of different origin in the environment and their relations to sustainable development.
Within MTM, we are now establishing the Environmental Forensic (EnForce) Laboratory. It is a new research effort funded by the Knowledge Foundation research profile program in collaboration with ten partners from trade and industry and the Swedish Toxicology Sciences Research Center (Swetox). The main goal of the EnForce Laboratory is to track and identify environmental pollutants with a better understanding of their effects. The objectives of EnForce are to develop and apply advanced analytical methods including metabolomics, bioassay technologies and speciation for effect-directed analysis and hazard assessment of the full spectrum of toxicologically relevant anthropogenic chemicals, mixtures, transformation products and metals in the bio- and technospheres.
The School of Science and Technology is seeking a postdoctoral research fellow in chemistry for a fixed-term appointment at MTM Research Centre.
Duties and responsibilities
We are seeking a post-doctoral research fellow with several years of post-doc experience. The main duty is to lead and supervise the development of chemical analysis of novel organic environmental contaminants. The successful candidate will be responsible for development of spectroscopic, chromatographic, and mass spectrometric methods for novel contaminants and materials and will participate in ongoing projects on, for example, PFASs and PACs. Responsibilities also include general maintenance of advanced analytical instruments in our well-equipped laboratory, supervision of students, teaching, and to communicate research results to researchers and industrial partners.
Eligibility
To be eligible for a position as a postdoctoral research fellow the successful candidate should have obtained a Ph. D degree in chemistry or related subject areas, within the last seven years prior to the deadline for application.
Assessment criteria
Documented knowledge and experience in analytical organic chemistry and mass spectrometry is a requirement. Knowledge and skills in PFAS- and PAC- analysis and development of analytical methods for human and environmental matrices is a merit. The successful candidate should be ambitious, analytically oriented, seeking new research questions, and have the ability to both co-operate and work independently with research. Proficiency in written and spoken English is a requirement. General assessment criteria include good interpersonal skills and an ability to cooperate as well as the ability and suitability otherwise required to perform the duties well.
Equality
Our ambition is to create a workplace that is characterised by gender equality and diversity.
Information
The position is a full-time position for a fixed term of four years starting in the second part of 2017 or at an otherwise agreed date. The salary depends on the successful candidate's qualifications and experience.
