About the role

Applications are invited for a Research Fellow position within the Faculty of Engineering, University of Nottingham, contributing to cutting-edge research in thermal energy storage (TES) technologies for industrial decarbonisation. The project focuses on assessing the potential of thermal energy storage in enabling the low-carbon transition of dispersed industrial sites in the UK. The successful candidate will investigate technical challenges and deployment risks associated with TES integration, and develop data-driven understanding of industrial energy use and storage performance. You will be responsible for collecting and analysing energy consumption data from selected industrial sites, characterising thermal energy storage materials using experimental facilities at the University of Nottingham, and supporting system-level assessment of TES integration in collaboration with industrial and academic partners. The role offers the opportunity to work across experimental testing, data analysis, and applied energy systems modelling.

About the team

You will join a multidisciplinary research group within the Faculty of Engineering with expertise in building physics, thermal energy systems, and low-carbon technologies. The group has strong links with industry and international collaborators, and actively supports interdisciplinary research in energy decarbonisation. We foster a supportive, collaborative, and inclusive research environment, and welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds and career pathways.

About you

We are looking for candidates who can demonstrate:

A PhD (or near completion) in Environmental Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related discipline

Experience or strong interest in thermal energy storage or related energy systems

Ability to work with and analyse large experimental or field datasets

Experience using laboratory facilities for material characterisation and performance evaluation

Strong motivation to contribute to research on industrial decarbonisation and low-carbon energy technologies

What we offer

We offer a friendly, diverse, and supportive working environment with excellent opportunities for career development. Benefits include:

Hybrid working arrangements with a blend of home and campus-based working

Generous holiday entitlement (27–30 days plus bank holidays and university closure days)

Access to training, development, and career progression opportunities

University fitness, health, and wellbeing facilities

Staff discounts, travel schemes, and a wide range of additional benefits

What next

This is a fixed-term position until 30 November 2026. The role will involve contributing to research outputs, supporting postgraduate researchers, and engaging in dissemination activities, including publications and stakeholder engagement.
