Applicants are invited to apply for a Postdoctoral Research Associate (PDRA) position to join the Horizon Europe project ‘AllData4GreenDeal’ (AD4GD) https://www.ad4gd.eu/. The post holder will join the highly-respected School of Informatics and Digital Engineering at Aston University, and will work with a consortium of expert partners from across Europe.
AD4GD’s goal is to enable integration of data from remote sensing, citizen science, Internet of Things (IoT), socio-economic data and VREs / research infrastructures in an interoperable, scalable and reliable manner to deliver services that support decision-making around Green Deal priorities. The Aston University team (lead academic and two PDRAs) will work on interdisciplinary tasks to lay the groundwork for three exciting pilot studies focussing on pollution, biodiversity and climate change, and will then coordinate the consortium in implementing those pilot studies.
You will actively engage with data producers, users and managers and other stakeholders, and work closely with AD4GD consortium partners to deliver technical implementations that meet the identified requirements. You will lead specified research tasks as required and will disseminate research findings in high quality publications and reports.
You will have a PhD (or equivalent work experience) in a relevant discipline, and a CV / publication record demonstrating the capacity for independent research. Please see the job description at the provided link for more detail on the nature of the work and essential / desirable experience.
This post requires a high level capability for synthesizing information, and an enthusiasm for solving environmental decision-making challenges by applying advanced technical solutions and communicating the results to a wide audience. We aim to build a strong team with good communications skills and a reliable work ethic.
Please submit your application with contact details of 3 referees, a CV, and covering letter stating why you are interested and what you would bring to the project. For informal enquires or further information, please directly contact Dr Lucy Bastin ([email protected]).
