The HI-ECN3 project has the mission to create a new High-Intensity facility that will be located in the ECN3 existing cavern in order to exploit fully the SPS complex availability into a new intensity frontier for Fixed Target physics in Run4 and beyond.

With this in mind, and given that the HI-ECN3 project is already underway, a detailed coordination and planning (short, medium and long-term) is required in order to fit all the dismantling and installation activities within the time and resources available.

You will have the opportunity to integrate a dynamic team in charge of the Injectors programmed stops, with a large view of CERN infrastructures. This position allows learning and understanding the general organisation of CERN accelerators during a Long Shutdown, to support major projects, but also the opportunity to learn about CERN infrastructures. You will also have the opportunity to work with project management tools like MS Project and other planning tools, and increase your technical and behavioral skills in an international environment.
