Salary: £33,966 to £44,263 per annum
About Newcastle University: Newcastle University is renowned for its supportive work environment, offering a comprehensive benefits package, including a generous holiday allowance, pension schemes, and various health and wellbeing initiatives.
Position Overview: We are seeking applications for a postdoctoral research associate specializing in stellar astrophysics to contribute to the UKRI-funded SYMPHONY project. This role involves a collaborative effort to analyze diverse data sources for asteroseismic modeling of massive stars, focusing on determining their masses, ages, and internal rotation profiles.
Research Focus: The successful candidate will engage in a two-year research project aimed at detecting and characterizing pulsating magnetic stars, as well as conducting magnetoasteroseismic modeling to better understand their internal magnetic fields. Candidates with a robust research background in spectropolarimetry of early-type stars are especially encouraged to apply. Experience in related analytical methods pertinent to asteroseismology, such as binarity, photometry, spectroscopy, and evolutionary modeling, is also welcomed.
Key Responsibilities:
- Conduct research aligned with the objectives of the funded project.
- Collaborate effectively within an interdisciplinary research team and with external partners to produce high-impact research.
- Present research findings to both scientific and non-scientific audiences through written and oral communication.
- Contribute positively to the research group’s culture and initiatives, including student supervision and outreach activities.
- Perform additional duties as required, commensurate with the role's grade.
Candidate Profile:
Essential Skills and Experience:
- Strong technical abilities in data analysis and interpretation relevant to the project.
- A proven track record of high-quality research outputs, including peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations.
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to write effectively for publications and engage creatively with diverse audiences.
- Experience presenting research at academic conferences and symposia.
Desirable Attributes:
- Experience in developing collaborative research proposals.
- Involvement in activities aimed at enhancing public engagement with science.
Personal Attributes:
- Ability to work independently and meet deadlines.
- Strong teamwork skills, with a commitment to fostering a collaborative research environment.
- High analytical and problem-solving capabilities.
- Commitment to promoting equality, diversity, and inclusion in all professional interactions.
Qualifications:
- PhD in a relevant discipline or equivalent professional experience.
- Honours degree in a related field.
Newcastle University is dedicated to creating an inclusive environment for all employees and actively encourages applications from individuals who can enhance the diversity of our teams.
