About the role
We are seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow in Chemistry to join School of Chemistry and Physics, Faculty of Science.
We are seeking applicants with expertise in synthetic chemistry ideally related to the field of supramolecular chemistry, as well as experience in advanced molecular characterisation methods.
The research focus will be synthesising, purifying and characterising metallosupramolecular cages, catenanes and rotaxanes.
Of particular focus is the use of ion mobility mass spectrometry to probe the structure and reactivity of topologically unique supramolecular complexes.
This work will provide unique insights into how dynamic and interlocked species interact, how we can manipulate the shape of elaborate supramolecular architectures and ultimately control molecular motion.
Qualifications
Completion or near completion of a doctoral qualification in supramolecular chemistry, organic chemistry or coordination chemistry.
Demonstrated expertise in the synthesis and purification of organic molecules, ideally related to the field of supramolecular chemistry, as well as experience in advanced molecular characterisation methods.
Proven success at establishing and developing internal and external partnerships that extend best practice.
Established capability to produce, publish and communicate impactful, high quality research.
Potential or demonstrated ability to supervise higher degree students effectively.
Evidence of resourcefulness, initiative and ability to meet tight deadlines.
