The ideal candidates will have a keen interest in developing state-of-the-art instrumentation and be able to work independently and engage in self-motivated learning. They will also have good communication skills, both verbal and written, and be willing to work with ionising radiation.
The successful candidates will be awarded beam time on an ISIS instrument to evaluate the performance of their prototypes in their ultimate environment.

Desirable qualifications include having knowledge of ionizing radiation detectors, having experience using test equipment for processing electronic signals, and demonstrating an extra-curricular interest in experimental physics.
Online applications only are preferred for this role. Assessment will only be based upon the content of the submitted covering letter and CV and not the 'experience' section of the application.
