Postdoctoral positions 2026 (2nd Call)

ComplexCité offers 2 postdoctoral positions in 2026 (more about the contract).

Positions are open to holders of a doctorate in a field that is covered by ComplexCité. Laureates of this program must have defended their PhD thesis before the beginning of the post-doctoral contract. The criteria for selection are scientific excellence and quality of the scientific project; the call also aims to promote applications that fit into an inter-team project of the ComplexCité consortium. The selection will be made by a jury made up of the Scientific Committee.

Each post-doctoral fellow will sign a “Contrat de travail” and will benefit from health and welfare insurance. The salary depends on the experience. For example, if experience is less than two years since the PhD has been obtained, the net salary will be approx. € 2500 per month (€ 3250 before tax).

Note that it is mandatory to be already in contact with the proposed postdoctoral supervisor(s) who belong(s) to ComplexCité to apply. List of permanent members is available here.
