Join the Team
We're looking to expand the team, and welcome applicants with backgrounds in:
- Synthetic organic chemistry
- Biosciences
- Materials chemistry / spectroscopy
We're especially keen to support cross-disciplinary training between these areas — if your background doesn't fit neatly into one category, get in touch anyway.
PhD Studentships
Externally-funded PhD positions are advertised online as they become available.
If you're interested in joining but don't see an open studentship listed, other funding routes worth exploring include:
- SCOPE / EPSRC Doctoral Landscape Award (DLA) studentships (opens in a new tab)
- Chinese Scholarship Council (CSC) scholarships (opens in a new tab)
Get in touch to discuss a potential project and funding route.
Postdoctoral Fellowships
Grant-funded postdoctoral positions are advertised online as they become available.
We're also very happy to support strong candidates applying for their own individual fellowship funding, including:
- Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851 Research Fellowship (opens in a new tab)
- Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship (opens in a new tab)
- Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (opens in a new tab)
- Newton International Fellowship (opens in a new tab)
- EMBO Fellowship (opens in a new tab)
- Career Development Fellowship (opens in a new tab)
- Daphne Jackson Fellowship (opens in a new tab) (for researchers returning after a career break)
Get in touch as early as possible before a funding deadline so we have time to develop a strong proposal together.
Undergraduate Summer Internships
A limited number of paid summer research placements are available each year for undergraduate students, including via the RSC Undergraduate Research Bursary (opens in a new tab) scheme.
Places are competitive and limited, so please get in touch well ahead of any application deadlines.
