We are seeking to appoint a Research Assistant / Research Fellow for an exciting opportunity to work on a research project funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council as part of a consortium of academic and industrial partners.

The research will be carried out in the Centre for Advanced Powertrain and Fuels in the Institute of Energy Futures at Brunel University London.

The project aims to address fundamental challenges in utilising renewable fuels in difficult-to-decarbonise transport sectors such as shipping, road freight and aviation.

The post holder will carry out experimental work to investigate the combustion of synthetic fuels in a real engine environment.

The post requires excellent organisational skills and ability to liaise with industrial and academic partners from other universities.

The successful applicant will work closely with other members of the research team and external partners associated to this project and attend project meetings to report the research progress.

We offer a generous annual leave package plus discretionary University closure days, excellent training and development opportunities as well as a great occupational pension scheme and a range of health-related support.

The University is committed to a hybrid working approach.
