Role Summary
Built on robust technical refrigeration knowledge, we are looking to recruit into the Centre for Sustainable Cooling a senior researcher (Grade 8) with robust technical refrigeration knowledge to lead the development of whole system of system step-change approaches to sustainable and resilient cold-chain for food and pharma products within the wider transition to renewables in both low- and middle-income countries, and high-income countries. This necessarily goes beyond simple energy efficiency of existing technologies but needs also to consider, inter alia, energy system and energy storage; the opportunity offered by modal shifts (e.g., drones) or product reformulations; the underlying business models as well as behavioural changes, policies and industry operational interventions.
