**Who are we looking for?**

Queensland University of Technology (QUT) is seeking a Research Fellow in Soil Science to join School of Biology and Environmental Science, Faculty of Science, Academic Division.

The Sustainable Agroecosystem Program within the Centre for Agriculture and Bioeconomy (CAB) and the School of Biology and Environmental Science are seeking to appoint a Research Fellow in Soil Science to further grow and enhance research capabilities within soil science and its relationship to plant production and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This position provides an exciting opportunity as a key member of a dynamic team to contribute to the development of agronomic practices in both crop and pasture ecosystems which result in an increase in soil carbon levels and a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.

**Real world impact**

QUT is a major Australian university with a global outlook and a 'real world' focus. We are an ambitious and collaborative institution that seeks to equip our students and graduates with the skills they will need in an increasingly disrupted and challenged world.

**About the School of Biology and Environmental Science**
- significantly contribute to the advancement of food production,
- develop more resilient and nutritional crops,
- understand groundwater-soil-vegetation interactions,
- treat plant and animal diseases, and
- prevent and control pests and invasive species.

The school has an outstanding record of producing impactful pure and applied research outcomes, with ERA ratings for fields of research either at or well above world standard (ERA 2015). We are the partner of choice for research and innovation at federal, state and regional government levels, and with industry and end-users. Our researchers currently play a leadership role in the Australian Research Council’s (ARC) Industrial Transformation Research Centre for Fruit Fly Biosecurity Innovation and the ARC Centre of Excellence in Synthetic Biology. 6 | Page School members have leadership roles and are affiliated with a number of University research centres including the Centre for Agriculture and Bioeconomy, Centre for the Environment and Centre for a Waste-Free World. Mindful of the way in which science and engineering must be done in the 21st century, the school creates an environment where issues can be discussed, researched and resolved in a way that attends to competing priorities. Our courses in science and engineering reflect this approach as we seek to provide students with learning experiences appropriate to real world problems.

**What you need to succeed**

Your expertise and initiative, combined with your ability to work as an excellent team player will be vital to your success in this role.

You will demonstrate:

- Completion of a doctoral qualification in soil science which may include the environmental sciences, agriculture or closely related fields or equivalent accreditation.
- Demonstrated research experience in soil science, in particular carbon, nitrogen and water interactions in agricultural production systems and its relationship to greenhouse gas emissions.
- Demonstrated experience in laboratory and field techniques in soil science, plant and soil simulation models, spatial analysis, and remote sensing is an advantage.
- Proven success at establishing and developing internal and external partnerships that extend best practice.
- Evidence of support on national and international research outcomes including relevant publications.
- Demonstrated ability to collaborate and engage effectively with internal/external stakeholders.

Additional Criteria for Level B
- Post-doctoral experience, including experience in supervision of undergraduate and higher degree research students.
- Demonstrated ability to plan and execute research independently, manage multiple research projects, and operate to a milestone-driven research plan.
