GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR SCIENTISTS: Experimental/theoretical physicist/physical chemist (PhD/ MS/BS) with experience in laser spectroscopy/MD. The optimal higher-level candidate will have experience in ultra-fast, non-linear, optical spectroscopy (surface SHG or SFG is a plus) and is expected to develop semi-independent research programs. We offer competitive salaries and an informal workplace. See detailed descriptions at www.boisetechnology. org. Send resume/CV with cover letter to HR_BTI@ boisetechnology.org. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR INTERNATIONAL UNION OF PURE AND APPLIED CHEMISTRY The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) is seeking to appoint a new Executive Director to replace Dr. John W. Jost, who will retire towards the end of 2010. The Executive Director reports to the President through the Secretary General (and for financial matters through the Treasurer). The Executive Director is responsible for the administration of the business of the Union, including management of the Union’s Secretariat, its publications, finance, interaction with National Adhering Organizations that comprise the Union, organization of biennial General Assemblies and Congresses, and the provision of support for the officers and governing bodies of the Union. The IUPAC Secretariat has a current staff of five and is located in Research Triangle Park, NC. Extensive travel outside the United States is required. The Executive Director must have • A substantial background in chemistry (doctoral degree preferred) • Ability to organize, manage, recruit and interact effectively with workers in a small office environment • Proficiency in information technology • Ability to formulate and execute the IUPAC budget (currently ~USD 1.5 million p.a.) • Ability to communicate effectively and diplomatically with a large number of scientific leaders throughout the world. A detailed job description is available on request. Salary is commensurate with experience. Only applicants with permanent residence status in the US can be considered. The desired appointment date is early in 2010 to allow for a period of overlap with Dr. Jost. IUPAC was formed in 1919 by chemists from industry and academia. For over eight decades, the Union has succeeded in fostering worldwide communications in the chemical sciences and in uniting academic, industrial, and public sector chemistry in a common language. IUPAC is recognized as the world authority on chemical nomenclature, terminology, standardized methods for measurement, atomic weights, and many other critically evaluated data. In more recent years, IUPAC has been proactive in establishing a wide range of conferences and projects designed to promote and stimulate modern developments in chemistry, and also to assist in aspects of chemical education and the public understanding of chemistry. Interested applicants are asked to send their applications, including CVs, and the names and contact details of three referees, by email to the Secretary General at secretariat@iupac. org, by 31 May 2009.
