*ASSOCIATE LABORATORY DIRECTOR
ENVIRONMENT & LIFE SCIENCES*

Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) seeks an Associate Laboratory Director (ALD) to provide leadership of a newly created directorate that includes the Environmental Sciences, Biology and Medical Departments with a combined staff of 225. The ALD reports to the Laboratory Director. The Laboratory is especially interested in developing programs that link its existing world-class research on the response of ecosystems to rising CO2 concentrations to its climate-change related molecular biology research, and to its analysis and modeling capabilities. Important related assets include BNL's synchrotron, nano-science and computing capabilities in addition to its nearness to Stony Brook University (http://www.sunysb.edu), which enables close collaboration and joint appointments.

Qualifications include an advanced degree and a distinguished research career in environmental, climate or biological science, and experience managing a large research program in a federally funded environment. Demonstrated ability to work with multiple sponsors at the federal and state level, as well as private industry, is highly desirable, as is experience with international organizations. Responsibilities include developing internationally recognized programs that are aligned with the mission of the Department of Energy; participating in lab-wide planning for Laboratory initiatives in energy and environmental sciences; linking directorate research and taking advantage of BNL's unique facilities; maintaining and enhancing excellence and productivity; developing outreach to universities and supporting collaborations between industrial partnerships and end users. The ALD is also responsible for operational and environmental performance, including safety.

For consideration please apply online at http://www.bnl.gov/hr/careers, responding to Position *#15077* (listed under Management). Brookhaven is an Equal Opportunity Employer committed to workforce diversity.
