Grenoble, France The University of Manchester Temps plein

Applications are invited for experts in synchrotron X-ray tomographic (CT) techniques to join ‘Manufacturing by Design’ (MbD), a 5-year, EPSRC-funded International Centre to Centre (IC2C) collaboration project which brings together the EPSRC-funded National Research Facility for Lab X-ray CT (NXCT) with the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) and several partners in academia and industry. Our aim is to shine new light on manufacturing processes and products through developing best-in class 3D imaging. Specifically we will exploit and further develop new and upgraded beamlines at the ESRF (BM18, ID15A and ID19) to achieve a step change in the 3D imaging resolution in real components, and the changes in their micro
- and macro
- structure with time both during their manufacture and in service.

The post holder will develop their own core research themes, and collaboratively facilitate experiments performed by visiting research teams. The Research Fellow will also coordinate the Manufacturing by Design activities at the ESRF and across the collaborating institutions.

**We are looking for someone to take up this post as soon as possible, ideally with a start date within a month of appointment.**

**What you will get in return**:

- Fantastic market leading Pension scheme
- Excellent employee health and wellbeing services including an Employee Assistance Programme
- Exceptional starting annual leave entitlement, plus bank holidays
- Additional paid closure over the Christmas period
- Local and national discounts at a range of major retailers

As an equal opportunities employer we support an inclusive working environment and welcome applicants from all sections of the community regardless of age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender expression, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation and transgender status.
