Postdoctoral Fellowship in Environmental Chemistry and Water Treatment Engineering at AuSpire (RMIT/AigüesBCN-PF1) RMIT University in Spain

AuSpire is advertising a postdoctoral fellowship for researchers in environmental chemistry, analytical chemistry, water chemistry, and related areas. The position is titled Non-Targeted Screening of Contaminants During Drinking Water Production and Managed Aquifer Recharge and is jointly associated with RMIT University and Aigües de Barcelona.

The project focuses on contaminant transformation during drinking water production and managed aquifer recharge, using nontargeted analytical approaches. It also connects to water treatment engineering and environmental monitoring, making it a strong fit for candidates interested in applied chemistry and water quality research.

The fellowship is part of the AuSpire program, an ambitious postdoctoral training initiative co-funded by the European Commission and the European Union under Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions. The role is 36 months long and is based in Barcelona, with a secondment of up to 12 months at RMIT in Melbourne.

Supervision is listed for Vincent Pettigrove and Maria José Farré. Applicants are invited to propose a research project aligned with the advertised topic and should review the full position description before applying.

Deadline: Monday, 7 September 2026.
