The Research Fellow will conduct research in flow chemistry, likely involving reaction development, organic synthesis, process optimisation and laboratory-scale continuous-flow experiments. Applicants are generally expected to hold a PhD in chemistry, chemical engineering, pharmaceutical science or a closely related discipline, with relevant experience in flow chemistry, catalysis, synthesis, analytical methods and scientific data interpretation. Familiarity with laboratory safety, equipment operation, research documentation and techniques such as NMR, HPLC, GC or mass spectrometry is valuable. The successful candidate should work independently, analyse results critically, publish research findings, contribute to grant or project activities and collaborate effectively with academic and industrial partners. Strong written and spoken English, initiative, careful laboratory practice and the ability to meet research milestones are expected.
Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) is a major research-intensive university located in western Singapore. It is internationally recognised for engineering, science, technology, business, education and interdisciplinary research, with strong links to industry and government research programmes. The university hosts a diverse community of students, researchers and faculty from around the world and operates modern laboratories, innovation centres and specialised research institutes. NTU’s research activities address areas including advanced materials, sustainability, biotechnology, artificial intelligence, energy and chemical sciences. Research Fellows typically work within a school, research centre or principal investigator’s group, contributing to funded projects, publications, collaborations and the training of junior researchers. Benefits and appointment terms vary by project, qualifications and experience. NTU provides a highly international academic environment, although research appointments are commonly fixed-term and dependent on available funding.
Singapore is a compact, efficient island city-state with strong opportunities in research, higher education, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, engineering, finance, technology and advanced manufacturing. English is widely used at work, while Mandarin, Malay and Tamil are also official languages. The culture is multicultural, orderly and generally welcoming, with excellent public transport, diverse food, safe neighbourhoods and extensive shopping and outdoor areas. Housing ranges from university residences and shared apartments to private condominiums; rents can be high, especially near central districts. The tropical climate is hot and humid year-round, with frequent rain. Foreign professionals usually need an Employment Pass, while research staff may be sponsored under the relevant work-pass arrangement by the university. Before relocating, candidates should confirm salary, housing, medical coverage, taxes and pass eligibility. Singapore’s location also makes travel around Southeast Asia convenient.
