Two new Postdoctoral Research Associate (PDRA) posts are available in the area of quantum technologies, based in the newly established EPSRC Quantum Communications Hub which is led by the University of York. The £24m five-year Hub, directed by Professor Tim Spiller, involves eight universities - Bristol, Cambridge, Heriot-Watt, Leeds, Royal Holloway, Sheffield, Strathclyde and York (lead). Private sector partners include BT, the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) and Toshiba Research Europe Ltd (TREL). The mission of the Hub is to develop a range of practical quantum communications technologies and to establish a UK Quantum Network.

York is seeking enthusiastic scientists or engineers for two new PDRA posts, to contribute across this technology development spectrum.

• Post 1 (Experiment and technology development post; based at Toshiba Research Europe Ltd, Cambridge). Subject area: Quantum communication network development at access and metro levels, and for the UK Quantum Network.
• Post 2 (Experiment and technology development post; based at the National Physical Laboratory, Teddington). Subject area: Measurement, characterisation and networking infrastructure for the Hub.
