Job description

This is a career-development opportunity for a driven and passionate associate to manage a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP). Through the KTP, the associate will deliver a high-profile, commercially strategic project that will enable AqSorption to gain an understanding of novel electro-catalyst materials and a capability in the integration of ammonia decomposition with renewable energy sources.

The associate will have the opportunity to demonstrate their ability to develop commercially viable, innovative solutions and communicate complex information to a variety of audiences within AqSorption, its customers and stakeholders. An awareness of commercial drivers and previous industrial experience is desirable, but not essential.

Project description

AqSorption’s vision is to develop a low-cost energy efficient system to split hydrogen from green ammonia for use in hard-to-decarbonise heavy fossil-fuel engines, such as shipping, rail and road vehicles. Ammonia is gaining significance as a zero-carbon fuel with potential to replace fossil fuels as an energy vector and AqSorption is keen to make waves in the industry with their research.

About the business

AqSorption Limited is a Midlands-based engineering firm founded to help realise the innovation that is much needed for the hydrogen and fusion sectors to thrive. Our central premise is if it can be conceived and sounds like a good idea then we design, build and test it.
