We couldn’t exist anywhere else and have shaped the city in which we belong. Working with the people of Liverpool to improve lives and support communities is at the heart of why we were founded and why we exist today.

A Research Assistant position is available within the LJMU School of Computer Science and Mathematics as part of our commitment to the Liverpool 5G LCR HDD project.

- Research in the areas of radio resource management for next generation networks, such as Beyond 5G (B5G).
- Develop resource optimisation solutions for Open RAN in high density public services.
- The dissemination of research work.

In return, we offer an excellent benefits package including generous annual leave entitlement, pension scheme, induction and development support as well as family-friendly policies.

This is an exciting time to join LJMU in our bicentenary year and with the launch of our new strategic plan.
