Members of the faculty/organizational unit: Science and engineering
location: Oxford Road
Employment type: A fixed term
Section/Team: Department of Physics and Astronomy
Hours per week: Full -time
Date of closure (DD/MM/YYYY): 10/15/2025
Duration of the contract: For 12 months (with an additional 12 months of extension)
School/Directorate: College of Natural Sciences

Applications are invited to fill my post -PhD research in the Intensive Physics Group at the College of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Manchester. The successful candidate will join a vibrant team of researchers, who have been at the forefront of two -dimensional material research since the discovery of graphics in 2004, and will work on a series of projects related to graphics and two -dimensional materials, funded by EPSRC and a group of other international financiers.

The job is available immediately for 12 months (with the possibility of another year extension) and will focus on the investigation of molecular and ion transport applications through the capillaries made of two -dimensional materials and heterogeneous structures that will lead to technological development of two -dimensional materials.

The successful candidate will hold a doctorate (or equivalent) in experimental work on physics, intensive material physics, chemistry, and material science. Preference will be given to experienced applicants in molecular/molecular penetration measurements and the manufacture of heterogeneous structures of two -dimensional materials. Applicants will have great knowledge and experience in manufacturing devices based on two -dimensional materials and are able to make sensitive electrical and electrochemical measurements. It is advisable to experience work with accurate electrical measurements, as well as excellent technical ability through a group of manufacturing and description facilities. Candidates should also be well organized and self -motivated with excellent communication skills. The strong record of publishing in magazines that the international peers has been essential is necessary.

The Department of Physics and Astronomy is committed to encouraging equality, diversity, integration and reaching by contributing to the university’s social responsibility agenda, which indicates its commitment to policies and activities and the provision of initiatives, including the Athena Swan Charter to promote the professions of women in STEM (science, technology, mathematics, mathematics and medicine) in higher education. The administration has retained the status of the Juno Champion since 2016 for its commitment to achieving gender equality, which positively enhances the inclusiveness of all.

As a business owner in equal opportunities, we welcome applicants from various professional paths and backgrounds and from all sections of society regardless of age, disability, race, sex, sexual expression, sexual orientation and transgender status. The merit and parity will be appointed for the chances that the applicants will not be able to manage the recruitment and committee.

We support requests from those who return from a professional break and we are happy to discuss flexible work arrangements.
