These junior engineer or scientist posts are based in the Explosive Atmospheres Team, at HSE’s Science and Research Centre based in Buxton. The team is largely focused on the safe development of new energy technologies and achieving safe net zero, primarily hydrogen for heat & transport. The team undertake large (outdoor) and lab scale experimental programmes, consultancy and deliver specialised training, giving opportunity for both practical and desk-based work. Several of the team's larger ongoing projects are high profile collaborations with other scientific organisations/government departments, which offers opportunity to publish work and present at conferences.
We are looking for someone with a relevant qualification who is looking to work, develop skills and gain experience in a creative scientific/engineering environment to join our team.

You will be joining the Explosive Atmospheres team that is comprised of approx. 12 scientists and engineers of varying experience. As a member of the team, you will be expected to contribute to its effective running, which may include the maintenance of team facilities, quality systems, or health safety wellbeing matters e.g., taking a role in calibrating equipment. You will have opportunity to develop competence in the following areas specific to team, such as DSEAR, Fluid Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Process Design (P&IDs), Process Instrumentation, Data Logging, or Combustion Physics. The role will involve a significant amount of problem solving and allow you to expand your range of expertise.
