About the role

Placements24 seeks a Senior Physicist to lead advanced materials characterization projects at our Upington facility. You will design and execute experiments using TEM, SEM, XRD, AFM, XPS, Raman and related techniques, interpreting data to reveal fundamental material properties. The role requires a PhD with substantial hands-on experience, a solid theoretical background, and a track record of publications. You will mentor researchers and contribute to grant proposals and funding opportunities.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
