The ideal candidate will have a strong background in isotope geochemistry and/or planetary geology and demonstrate excellent scientific track records, including high-quality publications in peer-reviewed international journals.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Conduct independent and creative research on planetary formation and cosmochemistry.
  • Collaborate with our multidisciplinary team and contribute to the development of innovative research projects.
  • Develop and maintain state-of-the-art geochemistry and isotope facilities, including thermal-ionization and multiple-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometers.

Requirements:

  • PhD in Earth and planetary sciences or a related field.
  • Strong scientific track record demonstrated by high-quality publications in peer-reviewed international journals as first author.
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to work collaboratively in an international research environment.

Benefits:

The University of Copenhagen offers a competitive salary, pension scheme, and opportunities for professional development.
