Overview Of Role
This is a specialised role requiring a combination of high-level skills spanning soil, crop, and environmental sciences, to include pedology and geostatistics, alongside wider transdisciplinary skills in areas such as expert elicitation/co-design, and communication. The role will take the lead on work to design, develop and deploy new approaches to Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) for a wide range of soil properties and environmental metrics and co-variates, including those observed and predicted under altered agronomic practices and environmental change. Metrics will include those arising from the quantification of the movement of macro- and micro-nutrients and trace elements in soil-crop systems, alongside soil water, soil carbon, and other indicators of soil health, and outputs of modelling studies, together with associated uncertainties. These activities will be aligned to projects that are supported by a range of public and private sector funders, and the role therefore requires a high level of collaborative skills, to be deployed both within and outside the organisation, and autonomy to develop and lead on new funding streams. The role holder is also expected to carry out the duties listed below and any other duties reasonably required by the line manager or Institute, commensurate with the grade and level of responsibility for this post. This part-time fixed term 2 year position will attract a salary from £59,882 to £66,808 per annum, full time. About The Company
