Available positions

Researcher positions affiliated with the Bjerknes Centre for Climate Research are available through one of our four partner institutions. All our researchers are employed by one of our partners: UiB, NORCE, NERSC og HI.

Permanent position as researcher in Climate Prediction at the Nansen Center

Due to increasing research activity and strategic growth in climate prediction science, we are establishing a new permanent position for an early-career researcher in our Climate Dynamics and Prediction Group. This role reflects our commitment to strengthening expertise in seasonal-to-decadal climate prediction, a rapidly evolving field with high societal relevance.

We seek a researcher with expertise in seasonal-to-decadal climate prediction to contribute to the development of the Norwegian Climate Prediction Model (NorCPM). The researcher will work on improving the prediction accuracy and reliability, including the design and implementation of advanced post-processing solutions.

Initially, the researcher will collaborate on projects such as INES2 (advancing NorCPM towards CMIP7 DCPP and beyond) and C3S2_375 (developing post-processing methods to enhance prediction skill). In addition to technical development, the candidate will actively participate in high-quality research and contribute to scientific publications.

Deadline: 7 December 2025
