Job announcements relevant to people interested in electronic structure calculations…
Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.

Applications are invited for a PDRA position in computational materials modelling at the Department of Chemistry, University of Manchester.
This is a UKRI-funded post to apply cutting-edge theoretical modelling to optimise the heat transport in materials for thermoelectric (TE) power. You will use first-principles modelling to predict and analyse the heat transport in a wide range of materials, with the aim of improving our fundamental understanding of how the thermal properties of complex materials “work”, and thereby advancing design rules for selecting and optimising future high-performance TEs.
As part of the project, you will perform state-of-the-art modelling calculations; develop/extend theoretical methods and analysis techniques; work as part of a diverse research team including collaborators from academia and industry; and be given extensive opportunities and support for career development.
The position is available from January 2021 for 36 months in the first instance.
Salary: £32,816 to £40,322 p/a depending on experience.
Informal inquires welcome - please e-mail [email protected].
