Post-doc opportunity at the Global Sustainability Institute

                Dear colleagues - I hope the below Post-doctoral Research Fellow job
<br>opportunity is of interest.
<br>We believe it to be a fairly unique opportunity because it is a three-year
<br>research fellowship post (with possibilities for extensions) to push one's own
<br>research portfolio, rather than e.g. work on someone else's project. We also
<br>explicitly welcome part-time (e.g. one-day/week upwards) and/or flexible
<br>working applications.
<br>Best, Chris
<br>
<br>---------
<br>
<br>Post-doctoral Research Fellow job opportunity

<br>Cambridge, UK.
<br>
<br>       Salary: 33,797 - 39,152 p.a.
<br>
<br>       Fixed term contract (3 years), with possibilities for contract
<br>extensions and promotions to e.g. Senior Research Fellow.
<br>
<br>       Although advertised as full-time, very much welcome part-time (ranging
<br>from 0.2FTE to 1FTE) and flexible working applications.
<br>
<br>       Application closing date: Mon 2 March 2020. | Interview date: Fri 3

<br>
<br>More about the Global Sustainability Institute (GSI):
<br>Over the past nine years, the GSI has built a global reputation for delivering
<br>research impact and high-quality interdisciplinary publications across a broad
<br>range of sustainability issues. We believe it is the only research
<br>institute/group to have received funding from six of the seven UK Research
<br>Councils (ESRC, EPSRC, NERC, AHRC, BBSRC, STFC). It has led and supported
<br>several high-profile EU projects including SHAPE
<br>ENERGY,
<br>Energy-SHIFTS, MEDEAS,
<br>RRING, Energy in Water,
<br>amongst others, and also been part of major centres such as the ESRC's Centre
<br>for Understanding Sustainable Prosperity and EPSRC's
<br>EnergyREV. The GSI has a particular interest in
<br>research that has the potential for real-world impact, and thus has a wide
<br>portfolio of applied projects that focus on working with e.g. European
<br>Commission, UK Government, local authorities, charities and NGOs, business and
<br>industry, etc.
<br>
<br>More about the post:
<br>The post-holder will bring with them research plans for writing high-quality
<br>publications and project proposals, as well as for collaborating with both
<br>external colleagues and those already based at the GSI. The GSI prides itself
<br>on supporting individuals and communities to develop their skills to
<br>contribute positively to sustainability outcomes. Therefore, we are open and
<br>flexible to exploring new ideas from whichever discipline they come.
<br>
<br>Contact information:
<br>More information is available via the GSI's Director -
<br>aled.jones@anglia.ac.uk - although all those
<br>at the GSI are happy to answer informal queries too.
