This post represents an exciting opportunity for an ambitious graduate to become part of a new cohort of exceptional researchers in a unique partnership between academia and business as part of Keele University’s Smart Energy Network Demonstrator (SEND) project.

Under the supervision of an academic project lead, you will undertake a programme of collaborative research, development and innovation (RD&I) which will underpin the development of a new product, process or service, working collaboratively with a Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire business, Astec IT Solutions. In addition, you will be eligible to submit the work undertaken as the basis of a body of work to be examined for consideration of the award of a PhD from Keele University. This project will investigate data analytics solutions for industrial IoT, in particular, smart energy applications. It will see Astec work closely with Keele University, exploiting their large, varied campus to develop one or more smart energy use cases for which a product solution developed by the Astec team could be of commercial interest to an end user (B2B).

Keele University is committed to the principles of the Athena SWAN charter, and values equality and diversity across our workforce. We strive to ensure that our workforce is representative of broader society, and therefore, we would actively welcome applications from women for this role.
