Job Market of the AG

The Executive Committee wants to announce both vacant positions and applications for a position in the field of astronomy. All information is compiled for free. The Secretary acts as an administrator of the respective offer on the server in Heidelberg, but not as an intermediary. Therefore, those interested are requested to contact the addresses directly.

You can participate in the automatic e-mail list service "ag-jobs". For that, please send an e-mail to listserv [at] listserv.uni-heidelberg.de with the text in the body (really text, NOT subject): subscribe ag-jobs. Thereafter you receive a confirmation, which you have to reconfirm via weblink or with another simple mail (reply with ''ok'' in the body, without quotation marks). This will result in another confirmation e-mail with instructions and a short description how to un-subscribe your list membership. Now you will receive automatically all incoming job offers by e-mail.
Please support our strive for completeness by registering desired and vacant positions with the Secretary Regina von Berlepsch via secretary [at] astronomische-gesellschaft.de or in another way: List members of ag-jobs can also directly e-mail them to ag-jobs [at] listserv.uni-heidelberg.de for distribution. Note that ag-jobs is a list moderated by the Secretary of the AG; hence from your submission of a job offer till publication on the list some time may be needed.

At present, the following positions are announced:
