Job Description

Positions are available for Research Engineers, Research Assistants, and Ph.D. students in the research group of Prof. Soh Siow Ling, at the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, National University of Singapore (NUS).  

The group’s general program of research involves the coupling of organic materials, mechanical forces, and electrostatics at different interfaces (e.g., solid, liquid, or gas). This coupling is currently greatly under-explored and poorly understood in science. At the same time, the coupling gives rise to many fascinating new natural phenomena for exciting fundamental discoveries and development of impactful and original technologies. 

The general approach of the group is to conduct original programs and new directions of research with strong fundamental science. The group is highly interdisciplinary and involves engineering (e.g., fluid mechanics), materials science, chemistry, and physics. Different organic materials are used, including polymers (e.g., stimuli-responsive polymers), hydrogels, and covalent organic frameworks (COFs). 

One project involves an original system that harvests water energy from nature (e.g., rain and rivers) and directly generates electricity by solid-liquid charge separation with high energy conversion efficiency. Other projects involve clearing virus-laden atmospheric aerosols and preventing the spread of infectious diseases (e.g., COVID-19) and development of clean surfaces that do not adhere any dust on them. Another research involves stimuli-responsive polymers for small molecular separation, smart delivery, and intelligent soft machines.

A recent exciting and emerging field from our group is the development of novel mechanocatalysts for performing mechanochemical reactions with high energy conversion efficiency. Harvesting energy from mechanical forces of nature (e.g., wind or water flows) is a novel and sustainable approach to performing chemical reactions. 

Qualifications

The ideal candidate is preferably someone open-minded to conducting original fields of research, independent, and hardworking. Because the research of the group is highly interdisciplinary and many projects in different disciplines are ongoing, candidates with a Bachelor’s degree from a wide range of backgrounds will be considered for different projects, including engineering (e.g., chemical, mechanical, etc), materials science, chemistry, and physics.

Retirement, Estate & Family Wealth Track

We're building a specialist practice helping clients plan for two of the most important stages of financial life: a secure retirement, and the legacy they pass on afterward. We're looking for a small number of capable people to groom into this space, backed by a real fixed salary during ramp-up and a development track built for advising clients on long-term wealth, not just selling products.

This is a relationship-led advisory role — retirement income planning, wealth preservation, and estate and legacy structuring. It rewards depth and trust over pressure selling.

What you'll do

• Advise clients on retirement planning — income strategies, CPF/SRS optimisation, wealth accumulation and drawdown — and on legacy and estate planning as their needs evolve
• Run in-depth financial needs analyses covering how a client's wealth is built, protected, drawn down, and eventually passed on
• Build and deepen long-term relationships with clients and their families
• Host and curate retirement and legacy planning events and briefings
• Work alongside specialists — lawyers, fund houses, and investment trainers — who deliver ongoing technical training
• Develop into a senior advisory or leadership role as you build your book

The package

• Fixed monthly salary of up to $4,000 (based on experience) for your first 3 months — probation period
• A fully sponsored Certified Estate Planner certification, plus ongoing monthly training from lawyers, fund houses, and investment specialists — a deep, continuous development track, not a single course
• After probation: a commission-based model with no ceiling. Advisers who establish themselves in this practice typically build toward $5,000+/month as their book matures
• A defined progression path into senior advisory and leadership roles

The support behind you

This isn't a brochure-and-phone practice. You're plugged into a systematized advisory operation built to handle long-term client relationships:

• Tools that turn hours of portfolio and policy review into minutes, so you walk into every meeting already knowing where the gaps are
• A market and intelligence system that keeps you genuinely informed for substantive client conversations
• Client-facing modelling tools to present retirement income and legacy scenarios live, clearly, on screen
• A structured pipeline system so client relationships are nurtured, not forgotten

Who this is for

• Diploma / Degree / full A-Levels in any field — career-switchers from corporate, banking, sales, or service backgrounds do well here
• Strong communicators who can make complex retirement and estate concepts simple
• People with the maturity to earn clients' trust on long-term financial decisions
• Patient, relationship-driven, and comfortable with longer advisory cycles
• Self-directed, organised, and able to manage shifting priorities

Based on publications in the top five actuarial science and insurance journals, B&F is consistently ranked in the top 5 among business schools worldwide. The undergraduate program currently offers two specialisations, Actuarial Science (ACS) and Risk Analytics (RA). The ACS programme is the only programme in Singapore accredited by the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries and recognized by the Society of Actuaries as a Center of Actuarial Excellence. We are also in the process of launching a new Quantitative Finance track within this programme. The RA programme covers the Financial Risk Manager (FRM) exam curriculum and enhances students’ analytical skills for financial risk management. The Insurance Risk & Finance Research Centre (IRFRC), which was established in 2011, sponsors and directs primary research on insurance and insurance-related risk research in Asia Pacific.
