About this position

The Theory Group at the Institut de Física d’Altes Energies (IFAE) is recruiting for two postdoctoral positions in theoretical particle physics and theoretical cosmology/gravitation, starting in Fall 2027.

The appointments are based at the UAB Campus in Barcelona within IFAE’s Theory Division. IFAE is a public consortium attached to the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and works across theoretical, experimental, and technological high-energy physics. The selected researchers will join a theory environment focused on the Beyond the Standard Model and Astroparticle Physics and Cosmology research lines.

The advertised research themes include physics beyond the Standard Model, formal aspects of quantum field theory, gravitation, cosmology, and astroparticle physics. The post is associated with the members of the group, including D. Blas, E. Masso, A. Pomarol, O. Pujolas, M. Quiros, F. Rompineve, E. Salvioni, and A. Wulzer.

This position offers a two-year research appointment in an international high-energy theory setting at a university campus location in Barcelona.

Funding details

Part of grant CEX2024-001441-S funded by MICIU/AEI/10.13039/501100011033; full-time postdoctoral contract for two years, salary proportional to experience and qualifications within the R2 category range.

What's required

Applicants should have a PhD degree in Physics by the start of the contract. Research expertise in theoretical physics is expected, especially in the strategic lines of beyond the Standard Model and astroparticle physics and cosmology. Applications must include a CV, a statement of research interests, publication list, and 3 reference letters. A personal identification number (DNI, NIE or passport) is required to proceed with conflict-of-interest verification.

How to apply

Apply through the AcademicJobsOnline portal using the listed application link. Submit a CV, statement of research interests, publication list, and arrange for three reference letters to be sent. Include a DNI, NIE, or passport number in the application.
