​

Postdoctoral Research Associate Position

Official advert/application link will become available in May 2025, but do not hesitate to contact Greg now to state your interest.

We will shortly be advertising a PDRA position in our laboratory. The start date will be 1st October 2025, but there is flexibility to start this earlier (e.g. July 2025) or later (e.g. January 2026). The position is available for up to 3 years. You can choose to sign up for the whole 3 years or for less if you have a particular career path in mind. Greg is happy to talk to you about your future career plans and how we can help you achieve them through this PDRA position. The project is supported by the EPSRC and will involve expanding our work on Dual-Function Reagents (see Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2023, 62, e202218371). You will be exposed to an exciting area in organic synthesis, organometallic chemistry and isotope labelling. We are particularly interested in hearing from those with a background in organometallics/organometallic complexes and the handling of sensitive reagents, and by those with experience in photo-, electro- and mechanochemical techniques. The position is available to all UK, EU and international applicants.

PhD position (start Oct 2025 or Oct 2026)

We have a PhD position available in the group to work in the general areas of organic synthesis, organometallic chemistry and isotope labelling. The position offers the opportunity to expand your synthetic chemistry skills and gain expertise in photo-, electro- and mechanochemical techniques. The position is available to UK and EU applicants.
