Aspects to which the post-holder could contribute, depending on research interests and expertise, include:
The post-holder will be expected to have a high degree of autonomy within the overall framework of the project.
You should apply if
A PhD in the theory of quantum computation or quantum information, or otherwise evidence of expertise in this area, is essential, together with a strong record of publications in high-quality international conferences and journals.
We look for candidates to have strong problem-solving skills, the ability to take a primary role in organizing and running research projects, and enthusiasm to work in a multidisciplinary group.
Our strategy and mission
We recently launched our strategy to 2030 tying together our mission, vision and values.
The University of Bristol aims to be a place where everyone feels able to be themselves and do their best in an inclusive working environment where all colleagues can thrive and reach their full potential.
