Principal Scientist - Protein Crystallography
Australian Synchrotron

The Australian Synchrotron, a major new national facility, provides researchers from Australia, NZ and overseas with a powerful new tool for scientific and industrial research. The facility has applications in fields as diverse as structural molecular biology, environmental science, materials science and medical diagnosis and therapy. The synchrotron operates a number of beamlines and laboratories.

Background
The Protein Crystallography beamlines (bending magnet) and undulator sources generate world class data, allowing users to map atom by atom, highly complex biomolecules. A recent highlight is the commissioning of a high-capacity robot, which can load and upload sensitive protein crystal samples in a fraction of the time required by human hands.

The Position
We are seeking a Principal Scientist to lead the development and operation of the Protein Crystallography beamline at the Australian Synchrotron (AS), ensuring it meets its' scientific objectives. As a recognised expert in their scientific field, you will drive all aspects of a research program, generating significant scientific and industrial outcomes. You will be required to display leadership abilities in managing and mentoring staff. You will be expected to provide expert advice, advocacy and direction to user groups and their communities. Occasional travel will be required.

To be successful you will have:
* Effective management skills and proven ability to liaise with people at all levels
* Effective advocate for the vision and values of the AS
* Scientific leadership and the ability to manage and mentor other scientists
* Strong organisational and time management skills
* Scientific ownership of relevant techniques, equipment and control systems
* Expertise in relevant data processing and analysis software
* Ability to manage the generation of scientific and industrial outcomes
* Proven ability to drive and grow new science in collaboration with external groups
* A PhD in a relevant field and several years post doctoral employment with extensive experience in a related field.

To apply for this position please send your confidential resume and cover letter to hr@synchrotron.org.au or visit our website www.synchrotron.org.au for a full position description.

Applications Close: Friday 3 July 2009
