Their software products are used by engineers and scientists across the world and provide a wide range of applications across multiple engineering disciplines.

They are currently looking to recruit a Graduate or PhD Chemical Engineer to utilise their theoretical knowledge in applied maths modelling around projects such as: chemical thermodynamics and kinetics within batteries; principles of electrochemistry in fuel cells; phase change and phase equilibria; and molecular mass transport by diffusion and convection.

• Good demonstrable understanding of chemical engineering principles, applied maths modelling, and broad physics fundamentals.
• Evidence of good communication skills through formal technical presentations or teaching / supervising.

There will be opportunities to meet with customers in person, so flexibility to travel within the UK and abroad is required.

On offer is an excellent compensation package including company pension, health insurance and flexible working. Hybrid working options are possible (up to 2 days per week working from home).
