Job Description

We are seeking a highly motivated and enthusiastic researcher to join our dynamic team at the University of Twente. The successful candidate will be part of the prestigious EU Horizon 2020 Marie Sklodowska-Curie Project POSEIDON, which aims to improve offshore infrastructure resilience against geohazards in a changing climate.

Key Responsibilities
  • Conduct fundamental, multidisciplinary, and multisectoral research across various functional and operational scales to understand the complexities and nuances in the current designs of Offshore Critical Infrastructures (OCIs).
  • Develop new methods to identify, map, assess, predict, and mitigate offshore geohazards, with a focus on wind turbines, submarine pipelines, and cables.
  • Collaborate with industry partners and academic institutions to deliver 13 professionally trained next-generation Doctoral Candidates (DCs) who will pioneer new approaches to enhance the resilience of current offshore infrastructure.
  • Engage in an enthusiastic and hardworking group of scientists and engineers on a joint project, with a strong emphasis on teamwork and communication.
  • Participate in regular meetings and work visits with industrial and academic partners, and contribute to the development of a comprehensive spectrum of training in both scientific and transferable skills.
Requirements
  • Hold, or be close to completing, a Master's degree in Civil Engineering, Geophysics, Geology, Geotechnics, Earth Sciences, Applied Mathematics, or a related field.
  • Possess programming skills, which would be a significant advantage.
  • Be an excellent team player, ready to engage in an enthusiastic and hardworking group of scientists and engineers on a joint project.
  • Demonstrate a creative mindset, a passion for pushing boundaries, and high motivation.
  • Show proficiency in both written and spoken English, with excellent communication skills, to fully benefit from the network training.
  • Be capable of collaborating intensively with both industrial and academic partners through regular meetings and work visits, and enjoy working in an interdisciplinary and international environment.
  • Adhere to MSCA project mobility rules: At the time of selection, candidates must not have resided or carried out their main activities (work, studies) in the host institution's country for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately before recruitment.
  • Be a doctoral candidate at the date of recruitment (i.e., not already in possession of a doctoral degree). Those who have successfully defended their doctoral thesis but have not yet formally been awarded the doctoral degree are not eligible.
What We Offer
  • A full-time position for four or three years, depending on the host institution.
  • The details of the offer are in line with the MSCA Work Program related to Eligibility, Benefits, and Salary.
  • A gross monthly salary ranging from € 2770,- (first year) to € 3539,- (fourth year).
  • A minimum of 232 leave hours in case of full-time employment based on a formal workweek of 38 hours.
  • Free access to sports facilities on campus.
  • A family-friendly institution that offers parental leave (both paid and unpaid).
  • A training program as part of the Twente Graduate School where you and your supervisors will determine a plan for a suitable education and supervision.
