Policy and Quality Officer, Academic Services & Online Education
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Policy and Quality Officer to join the Academic Services team in the Directorate of Academic Services & Online Education. The Academic Services team is responsible for providing administrative support to a number of the University’s main academic committees, the development of education policy, aspects of quality assurance and enhancement and for overseeing the administration of academic appeals, student complaints and academic discipline.
Senior Clinical Lecturer (Scholarship), Medicine, Medical Sciences & Nutrition
Applications are invited from General Practitioners registered with the General Medical Council. This post is based in the Institute of Education in Healthcare and Medical Sciences, part of the School of Medicine, Medical Sciences and Nutrition. The post holder will therefore be part of a team with an international reputation in medical education. Based on one of the biggest health campuses in Europe, our students benefit from a systems-based integrated approach. The role offers excellent opportunities for development of medical education skills with outstanding facilities and a supportive culture provided by the School and within the wider university setting. The Institute is proud of its position ranking Aberdeen as number 1 in the UK to study Medicine in the Guardian League Tables of UK Medical Schools in 2024, reflecting its student-centred approach.
Research Fellow, Medicine, Medical Sciences & Nutrition
The Rowett Institute, University of Aberdeen, is world-leading in nutrition research focussing on some of the key global challenges with regards to healthy and sustainable diets, food safety, and the Scottish food supply chain. The research contributes not only to new scientific knowledge, but also to new understanding to underpin Government policies and to inform innovation for industry leading to increased economic growth. Our main source of funding is from the Scottish Government funded Strategic Research Programme (SRP) which we deliver along with five other globally renowned institutes as part of Scottish Environment, Food and Agriculture Research Institutions (SEFARI).
Research Assistant, Medicine, Medical Sciences & Nutrition
THE ROWETT INSTITUTE, UNIVERSITY OF ABERDEEN have been awarded funding from the UKRI Transforming the UK Food System programme for a synergy grant to ‘Bridge Theory and Practice for Actionable Change in Transforming Food System (BRIDGE-ACT)”. Our research will use mapping and visualisation techniques to develop a toolkit which will allow users to explore how different parts of the food system connect, identify key areas for intervention and develop strategies for creating positive change. By equipping researchers and policymakers with the right tools to plan and deliver impact, BRIDGE-ACT will help drive meaningful improvements in food security, sustainability and public health across the UK.
Teaching Fellow, Medicine, Medical Sciences & Nutrition
We are seeking a motivated individual for a six-month part-time (50%) Teaching Fellow post. In the course of providing teaching support for Undergraduate and Masters level education, the position is designed to support personal development in teaching and scholarship through mentorship, training and a broad experience of the delivery of high quality education. The post ideally would commence 1 September 2025.
Research Assistant, Engineering
The North-East of Scotland is poised to play a strategic role in advancing hydrogen economies across the UK and Europe. Leveraging its extensive deployment of wind power, the region has the potential to become the UK's green energy hub by producing and exporting green hydrogen, thereby strengthening the entire UK supply chain. Repurposing offshore oil and gas infrastructure for hydrogen technologies—such as integrating wind farms with water electrolysis on platforms—can extend the life of existing assets, save millions of pounds, deliver green energy nationwide, and foster circular economies.
School Administration Coordinator, Biological Sciences
An opportunity has arisen for a School Administration Coordinator to join the School of Biological Sciences administrative team. The successful candidate will be responsible for supporting core activities within the school including teaching administration. The postholder will be part of a team who are responsible for assisting the Senior School Administrator, School Administration Manager, Director of Education and Head of School in the effective and efficient running of these areas within the school.
Research Fellow, Biological Sciences
We are seeking a Research Fellow to join a new NERC-NSF project titled “Unravelling the formation and impact of the plastisphere in response to environmental stresses in microplastic contaminated soils”. The post explores the impacts of microplastics on soils, focusing on physical properties and associated microbial processes. Much of the research will use microfluidics systems to provide a high level of control to explore microplastic breakdown by microorganisms the subsequent impacts on flow and transport. The postholder will work closely with a Senior Research Fellow with expertise in soil physics, and support will be provided to measure microbial properties. The project is joint with Cornell University who provide expertise in soil biogeochemistry.
Cleaner, Estates & Facilities
The University of Aberdeen is looking to recruit enthusiastic, motivated and dependable cleaners to join our friendly team of dedicated cleaning staff who take great pride in providing high standards of service across the University estate.
Research Fellow in Theoretical and Mathematical Biology, Medicine, Medical Sciences & Nutrition
A talented and creative researcher is sought to take part in a highly interdisciplinary project funded by the European Research Council (ERC). The overall aim of the project is to understand how intercellular signalling in developing embryos allows them to self-organize into complex structures. Our approach is to develop sophisticated mathematical models – informed by state-of-the-art biological knowledge and experimental data – to understand these counterintuitive reaction-diffusion mechanisms. We are particularly interested in discovering genuinely novel classes of reaction-diffusion mechanism, beyond the classic paradigms from applied mathematics and physics (e.g., Turing patterns). This will involve: (i) developing new analytical/theoretical tools for the study of reaction-diffusion systems, (ii) performing large scale, machine-learning-assisted numerical screens of putative reaction-diffusion circuits, and (iii) studying specific biological systems in close collaboration with experimentalists to guide our models.
