Research Fellow in Geodynamics

3 months ago

Leeds, Leeds, United Kingdom University of Leeds Full time

We are open to discussing flexible working arrangements

Are you an ambitious researcher looking for your next challenge? Do you have an established background in geophysics? Do you want to further your career in one of the UK's leading research intensive universities?

We are seeking a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to join the Institute for Geophysics and Tectonics at the University of Leeds. This role is focused on the dynamics of the subduction process, and the seismicity related to subduction. The Research Fellow will work with Dr Tim Craig and his research group, and will work on the study of subduction zone dynamics and/or subduction zone seismicity. This will include either the development and application of numerical geodynamic models focused on aspects of the subduction process, or quantitative seismological studies of subduction zone seismicity, aimed at understanding the controls on earthquake rupture in subduction settings.

A number of subject areas are available for study, depending on the Fellows' interests and skill: (a) processes controlling thermo-rheological evolution of subducting slabs , and how this links to the seismicity within subducting slabs, (b) seismicity in the Outer Rise region, and the controlling geodynamic factors on such seismicity, (c) understanding intraslab seismicity, particularly the occurrence of larger earthquakes in intraslab settings, or (d) processes controlling the interaction between earthquakes.

We are looking for enthusiastic and numerate candidates with experience in geophysical research, with experience in at least one of geodynamic model construction and development, or earthquake source seismology. Candidates will have a PhD (or be close to completing one) in an appropriate aspect of solid-Earth geophysics. Ideal candidates will have experience in observational seismology, geodynamics and/or numerical modelling in the Earth Sciences.

What we offer in return

  • 26 days holiday plus approx.16 Bank Holidays/days that the University is closed by custom (including Christmas) – That's 42 days a year
  • Generous pension scheme plus life assurance– the University contributes 14.5% of salary
  • Health and Wellbeing: Discounted staff membership options at The Edge, our state-of-the-art Campus gym, with a pool, sauna, climbing wall, cycle circuit, and sports halls.
  • Personal Development: Access to courses run by our Organisational Development & Professional Learning team.
  • Access to on-site childcare, shopping discounts and travel schemes are also available.

And much more

If you are looking for a role furthering our understanding of subduction and the associated geophysical processes, combining geodynamics and observational seismology, apply today.
