Just saw an announcement about the e-Science group at Newcastle is looking for a technical director. With so many going in Newcastle in the area of e-Science and with the great and extremely exciting projects that Prof. Paul Watson is involved in, this is a fantastic opportunity. I would strongly urge anyone with interest in all aspects of e-Science and large-scale distributed systems to seriously consider it. To my mind, one of the huge advantages of this post is that whoever gets it would be reporting to Paul, a fantastic boss and great friend.
