We value diversity of experiences and skills, and you could bring unique perspectives to our team.Context And MissionThe Earth System Services Group (ESS) within the Earth Sciences Department aims to link science and society by developing climate and air quality services. These services are tailored to the needs of stakeholders in different socio-economic sectors of society such as renewable energies, agriculture, city planners or civil society.The group actively works in identifying user needs; quantifying the impact of weather, climate, aerosols and gaseous pollutants; developing user-centered services; and fostering the dissemination of the services, the technology and the knowledge. To do so, we have an interdisciplinary group with climate and air quality researchers, science communication experts, social scientists and an environmental economist. This diversity in the team can inform research lines, do applied research, and ensure knowledge and technology transfer.The ESS group is looking for a Science communication expert from any nationality to co-lead the Knowledge and Integration Team (KIT). The candidate will take part in the knowledge transfer activities of the group with a focus on air quality and climate
