Job Description The successful candidate will contribute to an interdisciplinary research program focused on the development of a bio-activated organo-mineral fertilizer integrating elite nitrogen-fixing bacteria and phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms with mineral fertilizers for sustainable crop nutrition. The research aims to develop a ready-to-use granulated fertilizer capable of improving nutrient use efficiency, biological nitrogen fixation, phosphorus availability, wheat productivity, and soil health under Morocco's semi-arid agricultural conditions. The project will involve microbial strain production and characterization, fertilizer formulation through coating and co-granulation approaches, physicochemical and microbiological quality assessment, investigation of plant-microbe interactions, and greenhouse and field evaluation of fertilizer performance. The successful candidate will work within a multidisciplinary research environment combining microbiology, fertilizer science, chemistry, biotechnology, soil science, agronomy, and plant nutrition to develop innovative and sustainable fertilizer technologies. Key Responsibilities Develop and optimize bio-activated organo-mineral fertilizer formulations integrating beneficial microorganisms with mineral fertilizers. Conduct laboratory, greenhouse, and field experiments to evaluate fertilizer performance, nutrient use efficiency, and crop response. Perform microbiological, physicochemical, and agronomic characterization of microbial strains and fertilizer formulations. Analyze experimental data, prepare technical reports, and publish research findings in peer-reviewed journals. Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams and external partners to achieve project objectives. Contribute to the supervision of graduate students and support laboratory research activities. Present research outcomes at scientific meetings, workshops, and conferences. Ensure compliance with laboratory safety procedures and maintain accurate documentation of research activities. Candidate Criteria A Ph.D. in soil science, agronomy, plant science, microbiology or a related field. Application and Selection The application folder must contain: Detailed CV, including a complete list of publications. A cover letter outlining research interests, relevant experience, and motivation for applying. Contact information for at least three professional references.
