The European Spallation Source, a partnership of European countries, is hiring motivated and inspired people to plan, design, and construct the world’s most powerful neutron source. As one of the largest active infrastructure projects in Europe, our team attracts leaders in science and engineering from all over the world. We seek ambitious, talented people who are excited about playing a part in the future of science in Europe. Come and join our adventure.

The European Spallation Source is under construction in the city of Lund, in southern Sweden. The facility's unique capabilities will both greatly exceed and complement those of today's leading neutron sources, enabling new opportunities for researchers across the spectrum of scientific discovery, including materials and life sciences, energy, environmental technology, cultural heritage and fundamental physics.

The construction of the facility began in the summer of 2014, and the planning for the ESS user programme is ongoing. Scientists and engineers from more than 100 partner laboratories are working on updating and optimising the advanced technical design of the ESS facility, and at the same time are exploring how to maximise its research potential. These partner laboratories, universities and research institutes are also contributing human resources, knowledge, equipment, and financial support through In-Kind Contributions that will comprise up to 40 percent of the construction budget.
