The European Spallation Source is one of the largest science and technology infrastructure projects being built today. The project includes the most powerful linear proton accelerator ever built, a five-tonne, helium-cooled tungsten target wheel, 15 state-of-the-art neutron instruments, a suite of laboratories, and a supercomputing data management and software development centre. In the context of its history and future as a scientific organisation, however, it is more than the sum of its parts. It is a brand new Big Science organisation and we are building it from the ground up.

Whilst others have built telescopes that allow us to look into the furthest regions of space, now we will build a device so powerful it will allow us to the study the smallest objects in the finest detail.

Come and build the future of Science with us!

About the role:

The ESS is at an exciting turning point. It is in transition from being a construction site, to being an operating facility. To help us realise our goal of being the most powerful neutron source in the world, we are looking to appoint two more operators for our Main Control Room. The Operations section is responsible for ensuring a well-organized and safe operation of the ESS neutron source by controlling and monitoring the facility from the main control room.

This is a truly interesting and diverse role that would see you being an integral part of the team which drives the world’s most powerful accelerator based neutron source! In terms of your day-to-day work, you will be part of a team of shift workers based in our main control room. Together, the team will ensure that the logbook for the shift is kept, perform accelerator tunnel search procedure as required, manage the keys to the personnel safety systems, work with technical systems groups and contribute to the development of the operations instructions, procedures and training and develop deep knowledge about the accelerator subsystems.

You will also have the opportunity to get involved in other technical and non-technical projects as necessary, and you will also act as a point of contact for questions concerning safety (radiological or conventional) when on shift.

ESS is a user facility and it will operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Therefore, working outside normal working hours is to be expected. 

About you:

To thrive with us in the Accelerator Division, you need to be driven, responsive and good at spotting both problems and opportunities. You need to be a highly motivated person who isn’t afraid to get your hands dirty!

First and foremost, we need someone who is suitably qualified and experienced. Ideally, this means that you will have a Technical degree (or equivalent) in either Physics, Engineering or Computer Science as well as basic knowledge of particle accelerator and supporting infrastructure systems. Prior experience of working at an accelerator facility is highly desirable.

Our ideal candidate will have likely have worked in a similar sort of control room environment before. However, what we really need is someons with a strong programming and software development background (e.g. Python, C/C++, Java, etc.) If you have prior experience of working with EPICS, this would be a huge advantage!

We are building ESS from the ground up, so we need someone who is comfortable not only following procedures, but also creating them. We attach great importance to personality and attitude, so we're looking for a real team player: Someone who is sociable, has excellent communication skills, who likes to collaborate with different people and who is committed to helping this amazing project to realise its full potential. We need a hands-on self-starter who is able to work in a structured, orderly, responsible and – most importantly – safe way.

The working language of ESS is English, so don't worry if you don't speak any Swedish. For this role, we need someone who can start as soon as possible.

What can we offer?

Aside from the chance to work at a truly unique "big science" project, you can also expect:


• An opportunity to contribute to the future discoveries within neutron science.
• A stunning, brand new workplace filled with innovative minds and brilliant people from across the globe.
• A challenging, exciting and fast-paced work environment.
• Market competitive compensation that is individual and differentiated according to role, responsibilities, individual skills, abilities and achievements.
• 25 days of annual leave, as well as more than 10 days of public holiday and company days off or days with limited working hours.
• Monthly pension contributions on top of your salary.

The position is permanent with six-month initial probation period. Your work place will be situated in Lund, Sweden.

Interested? We certainly hope so:

ESD-45457

The European Spallation Source ERIC (ESS) in Lund, Sweden, is one of the largest science and technology infrastructure projects being built today. The project includes the most powerful linear proton accelerator ever built, a five-tonne, helium-cooled tungsten target wheel, 15 state-of-the-art neutron instruments, a suite of laboratories, and a supercomputing data management and software development centre. In the context of its history and future as a scientific organisation, however, it is more than the sum of its parts. It is a brand new Big Science organisation and we are building it from the ground up.

About the position

ESS has, together with several other parties, secured funding for a European research and innovat?on project; FlexRICAN. FlexRICAN is funded under the European Commission's Horizon Europe INFRATECH Programme (see https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/101131516).

The FlexRICAN project brings together several landmark Research Infrastructures (RIs) that have, or will have, when in operation different usages of energy; ESS in Sweden, the Extreme Light Infrastructure with facilities in Czech Republic and Hungary, and the European Magnetic Field Laboratory with facilities in France, Netherlands and Germany. Two key actors of the energy sector, Alfa Laval (Sweden) and Energy Pool (France) are also among the partners involved in the project.

The RIs and partners involved will unite their strengths to optimise their ongoing and future sustainability and energy projects. They will demonstrate that the RIs, as electro-intensive actors, can develop a global energy approach, delivering services to the European electrical grid through optimised energy flexibility, and to local heating networks by developing waste heat recovery projects. Through the development of a multi-energy approach, FlexRICAN will propose new technologies and solutions to increase resource use efficiency and reduce environmental impacts of the RIs. The project will focus on assessing and validating the implementation of new solutions and technologies at the three RIs involved.

Some examples of scientific objectives:


• Providing an efficient solar power generation through the optimisation of equipment.
• Ensuring a powerful energy storage system.
• Developing a methodology to optimise waste heat recovery projects.

For this project we are now in search of three engineers/researchers with different focus areas. Among the responsibilities for this role are:


• Support and organisation of the technical part of work in FlexRICAN
• Contributing to modelling of photovoltaic electricity production at various sites in FlexRICAN
• Work package and task level responsibilities:

• Leading and supervising work on renewable power production
• Leading and supervising work on battery arrays
• Leading and co-supervising work on waste heat recovery



• Contributing to the work in different work packages in FlexRICAN; on energy flexibility, building maintenance, climate optimisation, and lifecycle assessment.

This position will include travel within the EU on a regular basis. It is a 2-year fixed-term position with the possibility to extend. It is based in Lund, Sweden, and we need someone who can start as soon as practically possible.

About you

The successful candidate has an education in the technical area, at university level or other level that we deem relevant. You also have work experience from the technical field, and experience from studying/working with matters concerning energy and sustainability.

Furthermore, you have documented project management experience and leadership experience.

While existing ESS staff will support you in this role, and preparatory work for the project has been carried out, it is vital that you are self-driven and have the ability to take initiatives. You enjoy collaborating with internal and external stakeholders, including giving presentations and leading meetings. You are solution oriented and can see the big picture even if setbacks occur.

Experience from an international environment and fluency in written and spoken English is required.

What can we offer?

Aside from the chance to work at a truly unique "Big Science" project, you can also expect:


• An opportunity to contribute to the future discoveries within science.
• A stunning, brand new workplace filled with innovative minds and brilliant people from across the globe.
• A challenging, exciting and fast-paced work environment.
• Market competitive compensation that is individual and differentiated according to role, responsibilities, individual skills, abilities and achievements.
• 30 days of annual leave, as well as more than 10 days of public holiday and company days off or days with limited working hours.
• Monthly pension contributions on top of your salary.
• Focus on work-life balance.

Interested? We sure hope so.
