Full job description

Are you excited by the opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research helping protect the future of space exploration? If so, this 36 month fixed term role could be ideal.

We are seeking a motivated and collaborative Research Associate to join the ERC-funded PROSPER project, exploring the risks posed by space debris and helping develop technologies that support sustainable access to space. Working within an interdisciplinary team across physics, chemistry, engineering and computing, you’ll play a key role in developing and testing next-generation debris detectors.

As Research Associate you can expect to be involved in:

Building and developing dust detector prototypes for testing and validation
Conducting impact experiments using the University’s two-stage light gas gun facility
Analysing detector data and developing software to support data processing and interpretation
Presenting research findings through publications, presentations and collaborative project work

What will you bring to the role?

A PhD (completed or near completion) in physics, engineering, computing or a related discipline, or equivalent research experience
Experience working in a scientific laboratory or research environment
Coding experience in Python, Matlab, LabVIEW or similar
A collaborative and proactive approach, with enthusiasm for interdisciplinary research

What we can offer in return:

As a member of our team, you can expect a friendly, open and collaborative working environment and support in your development and wellbeing. You'll enjoy a range of great staff benefits including:

43 days' leave per year (personal leave, bank holidays and additional days allocated for the Christmas period, pro rata for part-time staff)
Excellent pension scheme with generous employer contributions
Corporate employee-funded healthcare plan, in partnership with Benenden Health
