Turbulence Modeller

Overview of Responsibilities

The salary for this role is £48,290 (inclusive of a Specialist Allowance). Onsite working is expected for 3 days a week, however, we actively support requests for flexible working. This role can be based at any of the following sites: Culham, Oxfordshire. This role requires employees to complete an online Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS), including Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) checks for criminal convictions and possibly a search of open source data.

The role involves developing and applying advanced computational tools to model turbulence and transport in high beta burning plasmas, focusing on creating and refining reduced (quasilinear) models to capture key physics of turbulent transport efficiently, providing essential insights for optimising next‑generation fusion pilot plants (FPP). This work is integral to UKAEA’s ambitious STEP programme and supports the research on...
