Research Fellow in Numerical Simulation of Planetary Magnetic Fields
2 months ago
Contract Type: Fixed Term (up to 22 months to complete specific time limited work)
This role will be based on the university campus, with scope for it to be undertaken in a hybrid manner.
We are also open to discussing flexible working arrangements.
Are you a talented researcher looking for your next opportunity? Do you have an established background in geophysics, computational fluid dynamics, applied mathematics or computer science and an interest in applying your skills to understand the processes that generate planetary magnetic fields? Do you want to further your career in one of the UK's leading research-intensive Universities?
We are seeking a Research Fellow to fulfil a key role in a project investigating the dynamo process that generates large-scale planetary magnetic fields. In this role you will focus on enhancing the performance of the existing Leeds Dynamo Code as well as performing and analysing numerical dynamo simulations to gain fundamental insight into the dynamics of rotating convection and dynamo action. You will be based in the Deep Earth Research Group within the School of Earth and Environment at the University of Leeds and work closely with Professor Chris Davies. This work is funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) Pushing the Frontiers grant "Earth's Core as a Layered System".
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
