Forschungszentrum Jülich Information

Conducting research for a changing society: This is what drives us at Forschungszentrum Jülich. As a member of the Helmholtz Association, we aim to tackle the grand challenges of our times. How can we make a success of the energy transition and mitigate the effects of climate change? What challenges are emerging due to the increasing digitization of our society? Will we succeed in understanding the human brain? And how can we facilitate the transition to a bio-based sustainable economy? Come and work together with more than 7,000 colleagues at one of Europe’s biggest research centres and help make a contribution to solving societal challenges. Help us to shape change! We offer an international and interdisciplinary working environment on an attractive research campus as well as exciting and varied responsibilities. With our family-friendly corporate policy, we support all employees in reconciling work and care. Flexible working hours, the possibility of mobile working, support with childcare and care for relatives as well as counselling in individual life situations are instruments we rely on. We support employees and their families who come to us from abroad with targeted services such as our International Advisory Service. Every year, we have more than 750 openings for apprentices, university students, doctoral researchers, research assistants, postdocs and management positions in science, as well as for young and experienced professionals in science, technical and administrative infrastructure and science management. We welcome applications from people with diverse backgrounds, e.g. in terms of age, gender, disability, sexual orientation / identity, and social, ethnic and religious origin. A diverse and inclusive working environment with equal opportunities in which everyone can realize their potential is important to us.
