  • Lead the development of ambitious, cohesive research agendas that leverage HEP and Argonne strengths to address foundational questions in particle physics, cosmology, and theory.
  • Champion interdisciplinary research and partnerships across Argonne, academia, industry, government agencies, and international collaborations to enhance scientific impact.
  • Manage Division operations, including research execution, staffing and talent development, financial planning, resource allocation, and performance evaluation.
  • Foster a culture of collaboration and safety that enables scientists and staff to thrive.
  • Serve as a principal advocate and spokesperson for the Division’s science to DOE sponsors, funding agencies, stakeholders, and the broader scientific community.
  • Serve as the laboratory point of contact for DOE High Energy Physics.
  • Develop and maintain relationships with multiple funding sources and strategic partners.
  • Ensure compliance with federal, state, and laboratory policies and uphold high standards of scientific integrity, environmental stewardship, safety, and security.
  • Serve on Argonne-wide and external committees to promote laboratory science programs and strategic perspectives.
Position Requirements
  • Ph.D. in a relevant science or engineering field, supplemented by at least 15 years of experience that includes demonstrated accomplishments in scientific leadership.
  • Demonstrated success in setting scientific direction, building and sustaining high-performing teams, and fostering interdisciplinary and collaborative research programs.
  • Distinguished record of research accomplishments and the ability to secure competitive external funding.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with experience engaging senior leadership, government sponsors, and scientific peers.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in a leadership role within a national laboratory, research institute, or academic setting.
  • Established relationships with DOE Office of Science programs and knowledge of federal research priorities in high energy physics and related fields.
  • Track record of leading large-scale research initiatives, partnerships, and impact-oriented scientific agendas.
  • Commitment to mentoring scientists and promoting a collaborative and high-performing research environment.
