In 2021, they are currently a Senior Lecturer at Uppsala University, where they are the research leader of a group of 5 PhD students, 2 postdocs and several masters students. Their research focuses on Prussian blue analogues, order disorder transitions in rock salt derived oxides and in operando characterisation methods. William also has a 20% teaching commitment, and is the coordinator for the undergraduate course "Solid State Chemistry" and masters level course "Materials Synthesis II". From 2017 to 2021, they were the co-founder and current board member at ALTRIS AB, with main responsibilities and expertise centered on the positive electrode material Fennac®. From 2017 to 2021, they were also an Associate Senior Lecturer at Uppsala University, Department of Chemistry - Ångström, with a research focus on Prussian blue analogues, order disorder transitions in rock salt derived oxides and in operando characterisation methods. William also had a 20% teaching commitment in inorganic, materials and solid state chemistry. From 2015 to 2017, they were a Postdoctoral Researcher at Uppsala University. From 2009 to 2015, they were a Laboratory Demonstrator, Laboratory Academic Supervisor, Teaching Fellow and Research Assistant at the University of Sydney. As a Laboratory Demonstrator, they were responsible for guiding a group of students in the theory and practise of experimental chemistry. As a Research Assistant, they were responsible for undertaking a research project over a three month period and producing a high quality publication from the work performed.

William Brant completed a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Materials Science at the University of Sydney from 2010 to 2014. Prior to that, they completed a Bachelor of Science (Advanced) in Chemistry at the same university from 2006 to 2009.
