You will have expertise in all or some of the following areas: electrification of marine vessels, development and integration of fuel cell-battery systems, the design and simulation of hybrid powertrain architectures, optimising battery capacity for varying loads, and creating control strategies to ensure efficient and safe operation of electric and hybrid marine systems. In addition, the successful applicant must be capable of developing and maintaining research networks with existing and potential partners. You will be encouraged to seek out and create opportunities and proposals for future external funding.

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.
