hace 3 semanas


Barcelona, Barcelona, España International Society For Industrial Ecology A tiempo completo

About Us
International Society For Industrial Ecology is a leading research institution dedicated to advancing the field of ecological economics and sustainable development. We are seeking an outstanding postdoctoral researcher to join our team in Barcelona, Spain.

Job Summary
We are looking for a highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral researcher to contribute to two exciting international collaboration projects: MAPS (Models, Assessment & Policies for Sustainability) and REAL (Research on Ecological and Economic Assessment of Post-Growth).

About the Projects
MAPS aims to advance the development of modelling tools in ecological economics, broaden the range of policy options, and expand the conceivable scenario space to achieve high levels of human wellbeing while limiting climate change and protecting biodiversity. REAL explores new models of provisioning systems, policies, and politics in a post-growth direction, where achieving universal human wellbeing is achieved within planetary boundaries – and removed from dependence on economic growth.

Responsibilities
The successful candidate will hold a PhD in Ecological/Environmental Economics, Energy Economics, or another field involving the modelling of environment and society. They will contribute to the design of post-growth scenarios of climate mitigation and energy transition that will be submitted for inclusion in the next IPCC and IPBES assessment reports. The candidate will work closely with the project teams at ICTA-UAB, University of Lausanne, and University of Barcelona, and have the opportunity to conduct a research stay at one of the other leading modelling teams in Europe.

Requirements
The ideal candidate will have previous experience with Integrated Assessment Modelling, an interest in post-growth and degrowth scholarship, and motivation to work on climate mitigation scenarios and modelling post-growth policy implementation. Fluency in English is required, and fluency in Spanish or Catalan will be valued but is not necessary. Track record of research publications and ability to create and contribute to a well-functioning, inclusive, and productive research environment are essential. Experience with programming is also required.

Benefits
The position is full-time and offers a 4-year contract with a 6-month probational period. The salary is €35,000 gross annual salary. The successful candidate will also receive support for travel to conferences and presentations. We are committed to advancing the careers of junior women researchers and researchers from under-represented backgrounds, who are encouraged to apply.

About You
We seek a talented and motivated individual who is passionate about sustainable development and has a strong background in ecological economics. If you are excited about contributing to cutting-edge research projects and working in a collaborative and dynamic environment, we encourage you to apply.
