Vacancies

We currently have the following vacancy within our institute:

Tenure Track Assistant Professor in Electrochemical Organic Synthesis and Catalysis (V25.0464)

We have an opening for an Assistant Professor (0.8-1.0 FTE) to strengthen our position in the field of electrochemical organic synthesis and catalysis, affiliated with the nationwide ARC CBBC Program (https://arc-cbbc.nl/).

Synthetic organic chemistry is a core discipline of the chemical sciences and a major challenge for the coming decades is the development of sustainable chemical synthesis methods and processes. Electrochemical organic synthesis, electrocatalysis and photoredox-catalysis have the potential to replace current synthetic methods in organic chemistry and allow production of chemicals based on low-cost electricity and low-waste transformations. Both in research and teaching, investment in high level electrochemical organic synthesis is warranted to maintain a frontier international position in organic synthesis and chemical conversion. As affiliated to the ARC CBBC, the candidate will have ample opportunities to strengthen academic and industrial cooperation with other CBBC partners (from the University of Groningen, Utrecht University, Eindhoven University of Technology, Shell, Akzo-Nobel, Nouryon and BASF).

We offer you a full-time position and excellent career opportunities in our faculty’s career system Career Paths in Science and Engineering, including the perspective to get a permanent appointment (tenure) in 1-3 years and become Full Professor in approximately 10 years.
