£30,542 per annum - Fixed Term contract for 30 months initially
An opportunity has arisen for two Research Fellows to join the Cranfield Water Science Institute at Cranfield University. The roles support the Institute's contribution to two major projects funded by the Natural Environment Research Council's Drought and Water Scarcity programme. They will explore the historical impacts of droughts and water scarcity (D&WS) on UK agriculture and evaluate the effectiveness of improved risk-based water management strategies to reduce future impacts. The post-holders will also support the delivery of other research contracts for clients on a range of water resource management issues including water security, catchment processes, and agricultural water use.
These posts offer an exciting opportunity for talented and energetic early career researchers to extend their academic profile. You will have a relevant PhD, strong data analysis, GIS and/or modelling skills in an appropriate field, a growing publication track record and well-developed written and oral communication skills.
