Research Fellow (Paleoseismology & Neotectonics)/ (GNSS Processing and Analysis)/ (Seismic Source Characterisation)/ (Ground Motion Characterisation)/ (Geotechnics & Geophysics)
Core
Lead paleoseismic trench investigations to reconstruct past fault activity and develop histories of faulting; process GNSS data to quantify crustal deformation and characterize fault-slip processes; develop seismic-source models for probabilistic seismic hazard assessments.
Role type
Senior IC Research Fellow (Paleoseismology, Geodesy, Seismology)
Builds
Site reports, technical manuscripts, reproducible datasets, code, and auditable logic-tree inputs for national seismic hazard models.

Required skills
paleoseismic trenching, GNSS data processing, seismic-source modelling, fault mapping, stratigraphic interpretation, geochronology, statistical seismology, PSHA logic-tree development, MATLAB, Python, GIS, structure-from-motion software
Preferred skills
experience in different sedimentary and tectonic environments, familiarity with InSAR integration, strong publication record
Technologies
PRIDE PPP-AR, GAMIT/GLOBK, GipsyX, MATLAB, Python, GIS, structure-from-motion software
Responsibilities
Lead planning and execution of paleoseismic trench investigations; develop and implement automated post-processing workflows for GNSS data; compile and evaluate earthquake and fault datasets; quantify epistemic uncertainty in seismic-source models; mentor and supervise research associates and assistants.
