Are you an earlier career researcher looking for your next challenge in an academic career? Do you have a background in biological processes modelling and experimental design? Do you want to further your career in one of the UK’s leading Universities and be part of a multidisciplinary team delivering real-world solutions? 

As a Research Fellow in Bioprocess Modelling and Design at Leeds, you will be part of a world-leading Research Group focused on fundamental and applied research activities aimed at supporting the development of a circular bioeconomy approach for sustainable waste management, covering projects on nutrient control and recovery from wastewater, bioenergy generation from organic waste, bioprocesses for carbon capture, assessment and control of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from waste management facilities, and developing technologies for microalgal biomass cultivation and valorisation. In particular, you will be part of a multidisciplinary consortium working closely with industry partners and UK government funders on the delivery of bioprocesses for hydrogen production from organic waste, coupled with carbon capture and sequestration (CCS).

We are particularly looking for highly motivated applicants with ability to consolidate and further develop their technical, scientific, and transferable skills, working in a supportive environment to conduct fundamental and applied research on process modelling and design of biological processes for energy production from organic waste streams and biological carbon capture.

You will have a PhD in Engineering or a closely allied discipline. You will also have a strong lab-based background in research and development in biotechnology and waste management, including the use of analytical, modelling and microbiology techniques and expertise in biochemical process modelling.

This role will be based at the university of Leeds campus and there is scope for it to be undertaken in a hybrid manner. We are open to discussing flexible working arrangements.
