Found in: beBee S GB - 2 weeks ago

Edinburgh, United Kingdom The University of Edinburgh Full time

Open-ended (permanent), Full-time (35 hours per week) 

Child sexual exploitation and abuse (CSEA) is a global problem that requires a global response. However, the lack of reliable and comprehensive data relating to CSEA is a major inhibitor to developing more effective and evidence driven prevention and response strategies and policies.   

The appointed candidate will be engaged in child protection research with significant experience in working with administrative data, which refers to any information that is created when people interact with public services – in this case child protection system actors such as health, education, policing, criminal justice, court, child helpline and other sources of data.  

This Lecturer role will contribute their expertise to leading data courses on the new MSc in Child Protection Data Futures. This post will also contribute to serving as the inaugural Programme Director for this new master’s programme for the first three years. In addition, this post is expected to contribute data outputs and curating impact related to their work for the University’s Research Excellence Framework (REF) exercise.  

The appointed candidate will also have the opportunity to be affiliated with Childlight – Global Child Safety Institute and will be engaged in research on how to leverage existing child protection sector data strengths to boost the better use of CSEA data across government, civil society, academia, and private industry.  

The opportunity: 

The Lecturer in Child Protection Administrative Data will be responsible for:  

  • Conducting research and dissemination, attracting external funding to sustain and grow the candidate’s research programme particularly around innovations in working with administrative data.  
  • Contributing to the development, management, and delivery of excellent research-led and practice-based teaching in child protection data futures on the new master’s programme including identifying and supervising student placement and project-based dissertations.   
  • Providing research and policy leadership by mentoring early career colleagues and supervising masters and doctoral students and post-doctoral research fellows. 
  • Engaging with key stakeholders around knowledge exchange and impact from research in order to improve child protection systems and to prevent violence against children.  

Your skills and attributes for success:  

  • A significant academic profile, with a PhD and a track-record of research relating to working with child protection data  
  • Expertise in the area of child sexual exploitation and abuse research that has had a demonstrable impact.  
  • Experience of leadership in research as a PI of research grants and in knowledge exchange through effective public engagement. 
  • Growing portfolio of high-quality research publications in child protection research. 
  • Experience of teaching and/or providing lectures on violence against children and/or administrative data  
  • Experience of mentoring and supporting colleagues at various career stages including PhD students. 
  • Experience of working with child protection system actors (police, health, etc) and emerging experience of obtaining research funding to support this work
