Opportunities

NEW!!! We have an open 3.5year position for a PhD student to work on advanced semiconductor quantum light sources based on single quantum dots in cavities, funded by the UK National Hub in Quantum Computing and Simulation (https://www.qcshub.org/). This project would be suitable for a candidate with a degree in Physics, Engineering or Material Science.

We encourage applications from backgrounds that are under-represented in technology and STEMM.  For more information please contact Prof Bennett at BennettA19@cardiff.ac.uk. Apply at https://www.findaphd.com/phds/project/semiconductor-quantum-light-sources-for-quantum-technology/?p168262

Statement on Equal Opportunities, Diversity and Inclusivity

We have repeatedly and purposely worked to build a research team which is inclusive, diverse and equitable through our recruitment, strategic decisions and collaborations. We have sought out co-workers and collaborators that share this conviction that these characteristics are not only desirable in themselves but broaden the knowledge base of a research group, their creativity, and enhance the working environment.

We encourage under-represented groups to apply to work with us and pledge interviews will be conducted following best practice to mitigate unconscious bias, with standardised questions. Applicants from non-traditional backgrounds are encouraged to apply including those from academia, industry and those that have had career breaks. We strive to ensure we provide equal support and development opportunities to all individuals.
