The Space Research Institute of the Austrian Academy of Sciences is 
involved in many international space missions and cooperates with the 
European Space Agency (ESA) and with other national space agencies 
(NASA, CNES, JAXA).
Our present satellite geodesy activities concentrate on the application 
of laser, microwave, and gradiometer observation techniques for the 
determination of satellite orbits and the Earth's gravity field. We are 
planning to extend these activities to other solar system objects.

We are looking to fill a position of a
GROUP LEADER
for the investigation of the terrestrial and planetary gravity fields 
based on satellite missions.

Scientific Qualification:
- University degree, preferably in Geodesy, Geophysics, Planetology
- Scientific expertise in the field of space geodesy in general with a 
particular focus on gravity field determination
- The successful applicant is expected to build up and lead a new team, 
which in the end will cover all aspects of terrestrial and planetary 
gravity field research. These include participation in space missions, 
data analysis, modeling, and (geo-)physical interpretation.

Please address your application including a curriculum vitae and a
