Overview
NTNU is hiring a postdoctoral fellow for the Horizon Europe EIC Pathfinder BrinE-loop project to develop selective ion-exchange membranes and electrodialysis processes for brine valorisation and recovery of battery materials.
Complete research opportunity details
The fellow will design, fabricate, functionalise and characterise monovalent-selective ion-exchange membranes, evaluate electrodialysis performance, collaborate on process integration and modelling, publish findings, join consortium reporting and mentor students where relevant.
Eligibility requirements
A completed doctorate in membrane science and technology, chemical engineering, materials science, polymer science, chemistry, electrochemistry or a closely related field is required, with strong experimental experience in membrane fabrication and characterisation and very good English. Candidates at the final PhD stage may be considered if thesis submission or defence is documented, but the doctorate must be completed before starting.
Tips for this postdoctoral opportunity
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Match your research background to the project, laboratory, supervisor and required methods rather than applying only from the title.
- Prepare a focused academic CV, transcripts, publications and research statement or proposal when requested by the official call.
- Confirm funding duration, stipend/salary, tuition coverage, start date and eligibility for international applicants.
- Contact a supervisor before applying only when the official instructions recommend or require it.
Verification notes
Primary-source verification on 7 September 2026 from NTNU's official Jobbnorge advertisement and current NTNU Jobbnorge feed. Jobbnorge ID 307185; deadline 2026-09-20. No closing clock time is stated, so only deadline_date is populated. Official Jobbnorge PDF body states the period of employment is three years and the position is externally funded. Its header metadata labels Duration as Permanent, so the position-specific body terms are used and the discrepancy is preserved here.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
