We are pleased to invite applications for a postdoctoral research position in the McAuley Group, School of Chemistry, Trinity College Dublin, working on a Research Ireland funded project focused on the development of sustainable synthetic technologies.

The project, Sustainable Synthetic Transformations: Replacing Photons with Electrons, aims to develop electrochemical alternatives to conventional photoredox catalysis. The research will explore how electrochemical radical initiation can be used to drive synthetically useful transformations under milder, more scalable, and more sustainable conditions, reducing reliance on toxic or rare metal-based initiators and minimising chemical waste.

Qualifications

Applicants must hold, or be close to completion of, a PhD in Chemistry or a closely related discipline. Candidates with backgrounds in synthetic organic chemistry, electrochemistry, physical chemistry, materials chemistry, or related areas are encouraged to apply. 

Knowledge & Experience

Applicants should demonstrate experience in one or more of the following areas:

• • Synthetic organic chemistry and laboratory-based chemical research.
• • Electrochemistry, electroanalysis, or redox chemistry.
• • Reaction development, catalysis, or mechanistic chemistry.
• • Operation and troubleshooting of experimental laboratory systems and instrumentation.
• • Common analytical and characterisation techniques (e.g. NMR, GC-MS, LC-MS, UV-Vis spectroscopy).
