Research Fellow in Climate Projections – The University of Melbourne

Closes 21 May.

This fellowship presents a unique opportunity for a highly qualified researcher with strong quantitative skills and knowledge of climate processes to join a project focused on addressing Australia’s climate science challenges and climate adaptation needs.

As part of the National Environmental Science Program Climate Systems Hub project on regional climate change guidance for local action, your work will contribute to improved understanding and usability of climate projections and understanding of climate extremes.

You will have the opportunity to contribute to a coordinated climate change and adaptation research program across all four of the new NESP Hubs through the cross-cutting Climate Adaptation Initiative. You will be based within the School of Geography, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Melbourne, supervised by Dr Andrew King, with the opportunity to collaborate with colleagues at the Bureau of Meteorology and CSIRO.

The ideal candidate demonstrates excellent knowledge of climate change science and climate variability, ideally having experience using climate models and other large datasets.

• Collaborative work environment with leading climate science experts from the University of Melbourne, BoM and CSIRO
• $77,171 – $104,717 p.a. + 17% super to be commensurate with experience
