Technician

Salary: Technician Grade 1 with a Salary Scale of €37,815 to €48,965

Closing Date: 25/06/2026 12:00 PM

Funded Full Time

Job Summary

Duration:

Temporary externally funded non Grant-in-Aid contract post, the indicative duration of which is 44 months, subject to contract. A panel may be formed from which future similar vacancies may be filled; such a panel will remain active for a maximum period of 12 months.

Basic Function:

The technician will be involved in securing seed, sowing, cultivation and harvest of the multi-location trials. They will be taking measurements in the field and analyse quality traits in the lab with milling/grinding the grain, protein analysis by LECO, Falling Number instrument and further grain quality tests. They will record the data in processable formats and store the data and will participate in outreach events to disseminate the findings of the project.

Background:

The majority of Ireland's wheat crop is grown for feed, with 83% of Ireland's flour being imported. The project FIELD2FLOUR Ireland proposes a comprehensive research initiative, to highlight the potential of reestablishing a sustainable wheat milling sector in Ireland. The project focuses on agronomy, climate resilience, milling quality and food innovation, with the overarching goal of enhancing food security in Ireland. Amid growing pressure to develop climate-resilient and locally-sourced bio-based food systems, spring wheat for added-value product development is an underexplored opportunity in the Irish tillage sector. FIELD2FLOUR Ireland will initially address the food processing potential of the current spring wheat recommended list, using previously unexplored natural food bioprocessing technologies.

Building on findings from, and in collaboration with the DAFM-funded Protein-I project, the FIELD2FLOUR Ireland initiative will expand this research to include new, future-proofed spring wheat varieties tailored for food applications. Collaborating with Irish grain merchants and farmers, the project team will trial new international spring wheat varieties at selected sites across the country. The FIELD2FLOUR Ireland team will investigate agronomic performance, grain quality, milling characteristics and food innovation in selected spring wheat cultivars.

Job Objectives

Conducting multi-location field experiments with duties like preparation of sowing, sowing, in-field measurement and scoring, harvesting and similar
