A.A.A. Director General for nuclear fusion sought. The Iter project is looking for its new manager

The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (Iter) is seeking a new director general to replace Pietro Barabaschi. The position is open to citizens of Iter's seven member countries: China, the European Union, India, Japan, South Korea, Russia, and the United States. The director general serves a five-year term, with the possibility of one renewal, and is responsible for managing the organization and achieving its objectives.

The current director, Pietro Barabaschi, will step down at the end of 2027 after five years in the role, during which he has overseen significant progress on the project. Iter is based in Cadarache, France, and involves over 1,000 people from its member countries working on the experimental nuclear fusion reactor.
