This is the expected starting salary for this post. Appointment at a higher point may be made for candidates who demonstrate exceptional skills and experience relevant to the role.

Applications are invited for the post of Post Doctoral Research Associate (PDRA) in the Department of Information Security at Royal Holloway.

This is a fixed term post for two years from October 2026 (flexible start date).

This is a two-year full-time position funded by the EPSRC Open Plus Fellowship Understandable Cryptography: A new approach to cryptography based on modular design and real-world security needs, starting around October 2026 (flexible start date). The successful candidate will join the Crypto Group at Royal Holloway, a dynamic research group comprising 9 academics and 10 PhD students, working on cutting-edge problems in cryptography. For more information on RHUL’s Crypto Group, please visit https://cryptography.isg.rhul.ac.uk/.

Cryptography underpins many aspects of modern digital life, and cryptographic protocols are used daily for activities ranging from messaging and online shopping to web browsing. While such protocols are often designed to provide advanced security and privacy guarantees, these do not always align well with the real-world needs of the users who rely on them. Furthermore, many users find it difficult to meaningfully interact with such technologies due to their complexity and lack of transparency. Electronic voting systems are a prominent example, where strong technical guarantees may coexist with limited usability, understanding, and trust.

This project aims to design new security definitions and cryptographic protocols that better align with users’ real-world needs, with a particular focus on advanced privacy. Our proposed approach combines modular protocol design to improve understandability with user studies to better capture and formalise practical privacy requirements.

The successful candidate will:

You will have a PhD in Computer Science or Maths (or be near completion) with a strong research record in the area of cryptography, preferably with experience in provable security. You will have demonstrated research capability through publications in top-tier venues. 

The role offers an excellent opportunity to work on fundamental research problems with real-world impact, collaborate with leading academic partners including Royal Holloway, the University of Luxembourg, and École Polytechnique, and become part of a vibrant and supportive research environment. 

You will be expected to conduct independent as well as collaborative research, publish in leading academic venues, collaborate with PhD students, and contribute to the overall goals of the Understandable Cryptography project.

Applications are invited for the post of Postdoctoral Research Fellow (PDRF) in the Department of Earth Sciences.

We are looking for a highly motivated individual to join the research project “Fault system architecture in the Liverpool Bay area (UK)”.

The UK will need to capture and store millions of tonnes of CO₂ per year as part of the 2050 net zero pathway. Offshore hydrocarbon fields in Liverpool Bay are reaching the end of their production life and have been identified as suitable for repurposing into large-scale CCUS (Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage) projects.
The fundamental characteristics of fault systems exert a major control on subsurface fluid migration, reservoir compartmentalisation, and trapping mechanisms within potential CO₂ storage complexes. Consequently, optimal deployment of CCUS solutions relies upon a robust understanding of fault network architecture in the subsurface.
This project will utilise extensive industry datasets to characterise the tectono-stratigraphic framework offshore Liverpool Bay and provide the geoscientific evidence base relevant to future optimal development of CCUS solutions in the region. The research forms part of the UK Energy Futures research partnership, a joint industry-academia initiative supporting the UK energy transition, and contributes to HyNet North West, a major regional decarbonisation programme focused on reducing carbon emissions across north-west England and north Wales.

The successful candidate will work closely with Dr. Nicola Scarselli as part of the research team. The role will involve contributing to the structural analysis of the study area through the integration of surface and subsurface datasets. This will include synthesising existing knowledge of the structural architecture offshore Liverpool Bay, establishing a regional tectono-stratigraphic framework, and carrying out detailed fault analysis for key structures. The postdoctoral researcher will also synthesise results for the preparation and dissemination of research outputs, including academic papers and presentations.

The post is for 12 months, with an expected starting date of 1 October 2026. 

We welcome applications from candidates who meet most of the following criteria 

1. A PhD in Earth Sciences
2. Strong knowledge of structural geology and subsurface analysis
3. Experience working in large subsurface projects within both industry and academia
4. Experience mapping stratigraphic and structural features using seismic reflection datasets
5. Experience in fault analysis workflows, including restoration of individual structures and regional profiles
6. Experience using subsurface interpretation software
7. Experience using a range of desktop tools to produce high-quality documents, presentations and technical diagrams
8. Ability to work both independently and collaboratively within a research team, managing tasks and deadlines effectively under general supervision
9. Experience preparing research outputs for academic or industry audiences is desirable

 In return we offer a highly competitive rewards and benefits package including:

• Generous annual leave entitlement 
• Training and Development opportunities
• Pension Scheme with generous employer contribution 
• Various schemes including Cycle to Work, Season Ticket Loans and help with the cost of Eyesight testing. 
• Free parking
