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> <br>Headlines: <br> <br> Based at Global Sustainability Institute, Anglia Ruskin University, <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>April 2020. | Start date: negotiable, but ideally by July 2020 at the latest. <br> <br> More information is available <br>here. <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. <br> <br>------- <br> <br>Dr Chris Foulds <br>Principal Research Fellow <br>Global Sustainability Institute (GSI) <br>Anglia Ruskin University, East Road, Cambridge, CB1 1PT, UK. <br> <br>T: (+44) 1223 69 5112 | E: <br>chris.foulds@anglia.ac.uk | Twitter: <br>@DrChrisFoulds <br> <br>Further info: Personal <br>webpage | <br>LinkedIn | <br>GSI | GSI's Consumption & <br>Change <br>Selected projects: SHAPE <br>ENERGY | <br>Energy-SHIFTS <br>| <br>Energy-PIECES | RRING | <br>Energy in Water <br> <br>Recent selected publications: <br>Expanding the scope and implications of energy research: A guide to key themes <br>from the Social Sciences and <br>Humanities (Energy Research & Social Science, 2020) <br>Diversifying diversity: Inclusive engagement, intersectionality, and gender <br>identity in a European Social Sciences and Humanities Energy research <br>project (Energy Research & Social Science, 2020) <br>An approach to identifying future Social Sciences & Humanities energy research <br>priorities for Horizon Europe: Working Group guidelines for systematic Horizon <br>Scanning (Energy-SHIFTS, 2019) <br>Use of evidence in energy policy: the roles, capacities and expectations of <br>Social Sciences and <br>Humanities (Energy-SHIFTS, 2019) <br>Advancing energy policy: Lessons on the integration of Social Sciences and <br>Humanities (eds.) <br>(Palgrave Macmillan, 2018) <br> <br>-- <br> <br>[British Science Fair] <br> <br> <br>-- <br>Please click here to view our e-mail disclaimer <br>http://www.anglia.ac.uk/email-disclaimer <br>_______________________________________________ <br>EASST's Eurograd mailing list <br>Eurograd (at) lists.easst.net <br>Unsubscribe or edit subscription options: http://lists.easst.net/listinfo.cgi/eurograd-easst.net <br> <br>Meet us via https://twitter.com/STSeasst <br> <br>Report abuses of this list to Eurograd-owner@lists.easst.netview formatted text
