ITER Employment Opportunities

ITER's Director General Nominee (DGN) Kaname Ikeda has recently requested that the seven ITER parties nominate additional candidates for the International ITER Team's open positions. This U.S. ITER solicitation for nominations from the U.S. community serves as one source for U.S. nominations and invites community self-nominations. The U.S. ITER Project Office is collecting all U.S. nominations and will work with the Department of Energy in preparing and forwarding the U.S. nominations to DGN Ikeda. The International ITER Team will then review candidates nominated by all the ITER parties and make a final selection from the candidates from all the parties. Applicants are limited to applying for only three positions included in the list below.
