About the role:

The Global Sustainability Institute (GSI) was established by Anglia Ruskin University in 2011 as part of our University commitment to sustainability in research, teaching and operations. This post will work within the GSI, and be tasked to support recent work on the roles of sustainability funding institutions in shaping research outcomes and policy recommendations, and vice versa. It will build on the successful delivery of H2020 €2m SHAPE ENERGY and H2020 €1m Energy-SHIFTS that advised the European Commission on H2020 and Horizon Europe energy funding priorities – already impacting €95bn+ in EU investment. The post holder will be encouraged to both work on existing collaboration priorities (with e.g. Technical University of Denmark and ERA-Net institutions) as well as develop their own research portfolio.

You will have degree and a PhD or near completion within 18 months, ideally in an interdisciplinary Social Science such as Sociology, Science & Technology Studies, Innovation Studies, Human Geography or Environmental Social Science, or other post-graduate research qualification (e.g. MRes, MPhil). You’ll also have excellent advocacy and interpersonal skills, as well as a track record initiating or contributing to collaborative projects. You will also have the ability to work independently with limited supervision.
