Project Coordinator – EU Programme (PRIME-ARI)

The European Spallation Source (ESS) is one of the largest science and technology infrastructure projects being built today. Our goal is to become the brightest source of neutrons for science and technology and be operational by the end of this decade. A state-of-the-art suite of neutron scattering instruments will be made available to address a wide range of scientific fields in fundamental and materials science. Powered by the world’s most advanced linear proton accelerator, ESS will enable cutting-edge research in materials science, energy, health, and the environment for decades to come.  Join us in shaping the future of science - from the ground up.    The ESS Administration Directorate invites applications for a Project Coordinator position for the Horizon Europe project PRIME-ARI (Professionalisation and Innovation in Management and Engineering for Analytical Research Infrastructures). PRIME-ARI is a recently awarded European collaborative project coordinated by ESS and focused on strengthening the operational excellence, sustainability, and long-term impact of analytical Research Infrastructures across Europe.  The project brings together leading European research infrastructures and stakeholders to develop and deliver structured training programmes for RI personnel. Through a series of courses organised within Management and Engineering modules, the project aims to address key skills and capability gaps across the Physical Sciences and Engineering RI landscape.     About the role:  ESS is seeking an organised, collaborative, and proactive Project Coordinator to lead the coordination and implementation of the PRIME-ARI project. In this role, you will act as the main interface with the European Commission and consortium partners, ensuring high-quality project delivery in line with the Grant Agreement, Description of Action (DoA), and project objectives.  You will play a central role in coordinating project governance, reporting, communication, training activi
