Dear AAPPS-DPP members
Here is job opportunity in IBS, Korea.

Dear whom may it concern,
This is Hyojin JANG from Research Evaluation Team at Institute for Basic Science.
I'm writing to request for a job posting.
The job posting should be contained as above;* Title: Call for Applications for Associate Director Position at the "Center for Relativistic Laser Science" of the Institutefor Basic Science (IBS)* Contents:

Call for Applications for Associate Director Position at the "Center for Relativistic Laser
Science" of the Institute for Basic Science (IBS)IBS invites applicants for the position of two Associate Directors, one in experimental plasma physics
and the other in attosecond science, who are senior-level researchers with high research potentials andare able to run his or her own research group in collaboration with the director of the Research Center.

1. Introduction of the research center- Center for Relativistic Laser Science (CoReLS), directed by Prof. Chang Hee Nam, is one of
the research centers established at Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST) by
Institute for Basic Science as an IBS campus center. CoReLS explores relativistic lasermatter interactions and attosecond science using the PW laser facility, operating two PWlaser beamlines with outputs of 4 PW and 1 PW at 20 fs, and several high repetition rate
femtosecond high power lasers. Major research topics pursued with the PW lasers coverphysics of superintense laser-matter interactions, laser-driven particle acceleration, strong
field quantum electrodynamics, and laboratory astrophysics. In addition, the attosecond
science group works on ultrafast atomic and molecular dynamics, ultrafast phenomena in
nanostructures and single-shot temporal characterization of optical waveforms.

2. Job description- An associate director plays an important role in achieving the goals of the research centerby working closely with the director as well as directing his or her own research group within
the center. (i) The specific field of research solicited for the associate director in experimental

laser-plasma physics is strong field physics explored with PW lasers, including laser-driven
particle acceleration of electrons and protons/ions, strong field quantum electrodynamics, andlaboratory astrophysics. (ii) The research area for the associate director in attosecond science
covers ultrafast optical science in atoms, molecules, plasmas, and nanostructures, along withthe generation and characterization of attosecond pulses in non-relativistic and relativisticregimes.
- Applicants should have a strong record of scholarly achievements at the national andinternational level, a significant record of securing research fund, and evidence of leadershipability in his/her research field.
- The candidates must have experience managing a large research program and staff within
an academic institution (or equivalent agency responsible for research) and be able toarticulate a strong vision to further the research and outreach programs in IBS.
- The successful candidates should be able to acquire a faculty position at GIST.

3. Requirements for the position- All candidates must be able to commit completely to IBS research activities in a long-term.
- All candidates must be able to manage their respective research group.
- The candidate should be recognized as one of leaders in the international community of hisor her research field.
- The candidate of an associate director must be fluent enough with the relevant scientificand policy issues to be a highly credible representative of the Center among audiencesranging from the general public to the uppermost levels of scientists and policymakers. The
position calls for vision, breadth, and good judgment; proven intellectual leadership skills; akeen sense of public policy, as well as demonstrated financial and staff management
experience.

4. Offer- Authority to run his/her own research team, while collaborating with other groups at thecenter.
- Dual appointment as an associate director at IBS and a faculty at GIST.
- Very competitive salary

5. General Selection Procedure① Recruitment of applicants by public advertisement② Selection of candidates for in-depth evaluation③ Symposium and in-depth interview by review panel④ Decision by the SEC(Selection & Evaluation Committee) about recommendation⑤ Negotiation with director⑥ Appointment by the president
