Birmingham, United Kingdom Energy Systems Catapult Full time

Salary: £30-35k + Benefits

Status: Permanent /Full-time strongly preferable (requests for part-time/flexible working arrangements are welcome)

Transitioning to a low-carbon energy system to meet the 2050 Net Zero target is one of the most complex and important challenges that humanity faces, transport use is currently one of the largest emitters of carbon dioxide, so the application of cutting-edge modelling tools to simulate the performance and impact of different transport technologies & designs on the energy system is becoming increasingly important as the UK strives towards decarbonisation.

As the demand for our transport systems modelling & simulation expertise and services continues to grow, we have a brand-new opportunity to join our Infrastructure & Engineering team.

The team uses a variety of existing models, built in Python and MATLAB, to assess multiple vehicle types, user behaviours and the associated infrastructure requirements and energy system impacts. The team is also in the process of developing new tools and enhancing existing ones, as we aim to support a broad range of organisations understand and integrate decarbonised transport systems.

You.

We imagine you will come from a STEM background and have already started to build your career within an analytical/engineering environment but are genuinely interested in making an impact on the transport and energy systems’ Net Zero transition. You will also have a demonstrated ability to learn about new areas of technology and their application and be able to consider implications, anticipate problems and solve them pragmatically and with consideration of the wider needs of the team.

Beyond this you will have an ability to define, collect and analyse data. A key element of this role will be to maintain and support the development of the team’s modelling tools. You will need to demonstrate competence in one or more software packages. Python or MATLAB would be preferred, but don’t rule yourself out, as experience with other software environment may also be applicable. You are also keen to further develop your analytical and communication skills.

Many of the projects we undertake are collaborative and will often involve cross functional internal teams providing solutions to a wide range of private and public sector organisations, to that end you will need to be both comfortable and effective working in a consultative environment.

The Opportunity.

Reporting to the Transport Practice Manager as a part of this team you will be gathering data, supporting any model improvements and the development of new analytical tools. You will be using our models and other sources of data to perform studies and other analysis to develop insights and inform ESC’s transport decarbonisation activities. This data will likely include vehicle and vessel cost and performance data, usage patterns and supporting infrastructure specifications and investment costs.

As you develop and grow into the role, you can also expect in time to take the lead on pieces of modelling and analytical work and increasingly interact with external stakeholders that we work with.

Next Step

So, if you would like to work towards becoming a Transport Systems Modelling Analyst, and in doing so have a meaningful impact on the energy transition and the UK’s drive to hit Net Zero, then look no further. You may have just discovered the opportunity you were looking for.

We welcome applications from all, including those who may be returning to work, those wishing to work flexibly for any reason, and those who may need additional support.
