Located in Cerdanyola del Vallès (Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain), it is funded by the Spanish Government (Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación) and the Catalan Government (Generalitat de Catalunya, Departament de Recerca i Universitats). The synchrotron light produced by 3 GeV electrons is used by thousands of researchers to analyse and understand the properties and functionality of matter, spanning a wide variety of fields, such as catalytic research, health, energy production/storage, environmental research, communication technologies, or cultural heritage.
Our highly motivated staff works in a multidisciplinary work environment with an atmosphere formed by lived diversity, inclusion and respect for our colleagues. One of the goals of our gender equality plan is to reach parity within the Consortium’s different divisions and offices, and several actions have been taken to encourage applications from women mostly in scientific, engineer and technical job positions. Furthermore, Located close to Barcelona, in a natural park and well connected by car and public transportation, with excellent connectivity to the world and an employer who understands the importance of life-work balance.
Facing an upgrade to ALBA II, a 4th generation facility, which will increase dramatically brightness and coherent flux, ALBA is in a phase of growth and dynamics.
Being a part of the ALBA team will promote your career and will give you the opportunities to explore new territories.
For more information, you can take a look on our history watching this video:
Tasks
The successful candidate will:
- Provide user support to public and proprietary users including performing Local Contact duties.
- Collaborate with your colleagues to maintain the beamline and contribute to the upgrade of the beamline within the ALBA II context.
- Engage with other groups of the Experiments Division and ALBA to find synergies between the programs and develop new opportunities for the facility.
- Develop your own scientific program in one of ALBA's focus areas, including energy materials, and catalysis, using X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques (XAS/XRD) in combination with other capabilities available at ALBA
- Engage in projects and collaborations of the transversal research program of the section (for example on energy storage and/or catalysis) at internal, national and European level. This may also include the initiation of new projects if appropriate.
