The IDRIC Early Career Researchers Academy (ECRA) aims to enhance the impact of our researchers within the UK industrial decarbonisation community and ensure our researchers can thrive in a diverse range of career pathways that are critical for net zero.
The programme will be designed and led by ECRs to ensure maximum impact. To be eligible for the ECRA, researchers must:
Click the button to sign up for IDRIC mailing list and click the ECRA option. By signing up to become an ECRA member, you will gain exclusive access to our Slack community, a platform to connect IDRIC ECRs. You will also receive our quarterly ECRA newsletter that is full of internal and external opportunities for ECRs. We source opportunities so you don’t have to.

The Environment Agency are looking for a researcher with systems thinking or wider industrial decarbonisation experience to provide evidence to inform strategic planning for net zero. This is 6 month+ secondment with flexible working at home, hybrid or in an EA office. Deadline: 7th June.
The Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU) have a summer internship opportunity that is open to all students (undergraduate, masters, PhD) and ECRs. For more information, click the link.
C-DICE (Centre for Postdoctoral Development in Infrastructure Construction and Energy) are delighted to host the UKRSA/Vitae biennial National Postdoc Conference in 2023 as part of Postdoc Appreciation Week – the only conference in the UK dedicated solely to the celebration of postdoctoral researchers from any university, in any discipline. Loughborough University on 19 September for talks, workshops, networking and a celebration of postdocs!
Secondments are excellent conduits to increase knowledge exchange between researchers and stakeholders and provide career opportunities. That’s why we have created the IDRIC secondment fund. Interested in being seconded? Click here.

DEADLINE PASSED. The CCC Industry team are looking for a researcher to support their analytical work programme to inform advice to Government on the Seventh Carbon Budget. There is the potential to work on a range of issues related to industrial decarbonisation depending on the background of the secondee.
DEADLINE PASSED. The Scottish Government are seeking a researcher with expertise in industrial decarbonisation to work within their industry decarbonisation team to help develop an expanded policy framework that meets the challenge of Scotland’s net zero targets. You do not need to have worked in policy areas before but you must have knowledge of the wider considerations of industrial decarbonisation.
