At Durham University, we are seeking a highly skilled Postdoctoral Research Assistant to join our team in the Department of Geography. The successful candidate will be part of a large research project that aims to advance our knowledge of past climatic conditions to better understand Earth's climate response to different kinds of forcing.

The project Past-to-Future (P2F) is led by Anna von der Heydt at the University of Utrecht, the Netherlands, and involves 21 European institutions spanning modelling and proxy approaches. Our department has an internationally recognised group of researchers in the field of sea level, ice and climate.

We are offering a competitive salary of £35,462 per annum, plus benefits, for a 30-month fixed-term contract. The overall aim of this role is to collate and generate high time resolution data of ocean temperature changes during the last glacial cycle and the mid Pliocene warm period.

Responsibilities include collaborating with colleagues on new data from Greenland ice cores, generating organic geochemistry proxies, and liaising with other researchers on data interpretation and synthesis. You will have opportunities to present your research and receive training support from award-winning university programs.
