ANSTO is one of Australia's foremost scientific research and development
organisations, focused on delivering the benefits of nuclear science to
the Australian community. Based in Sydney, we have recently commenced
operation of the new 20 MW OPAL Reactor along with its initial suite of
9 instruments, and have built up our team of scientists at the Bragg
Institute to the point that we are the leading group of neutron
scatterer's in the Southern Hemisphere.
 
We are seeking an instrument scientist to join our team operating the
new time-of-flight neutron reflectometer, PLATYPUS.  The instrument is
capable of operating in both polarised and unpolarised mode, and is
suitable for studies of free liquid surfaces, buried interfaces and
air-solid interfaces, in both magnetic and soft-matter systems.
 
Successful candidates will be expected to conduct a high-quality
research program, in collaboration with Australian universities,
industry, other ANSTO divisions and overseas scientists.  Possible areas

Successful candidates will have a Ph.D. in condensed-matter physics,
chemistry, materials science or a related area, excellent interpersonal
and communication skills, and demonstrated ability to work both
independently and in teams.  Experience at, or using, major
neutron-scattering or x-ray synchrotron facilities will be an asset.
 
To be eligible for appointment, applicants will require a security and
