Research Associate

2 months ago

Cardiff, Cardiff, United Kingdom Cardiff University Full time
The Welsh School of Architecture (WSA) is seeking to appoint a highly motivated Research Associate.

The successful applicant will be part of the Centre for a Low Carbon Built Environment, based at the WSA working with colleagues with long term experience of the different stages of retrofitting.

The successful candidate will investigate, through engagement with residents and relevant stakeholders in the sector, what changes are needed to increase the successful uptake of whole energy system retrofitting in owner-occupied housing.


This will involve the following activities:

  • Carry out a sprint literature review of programmes, funding and finance schemes targeted at owner occupiers and identify and evaluate programmes where other financial incentives such as insurance or mortgages reductions have been applied.
2.

Carry out semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders in the grant/housing/financial sector to identify key issues and benefits around owner occupier retrofit and how these could be overcome.


3.

Develop, carry out, analyse and present outcomes of semi-structured interviews with residents to a sample of the owner occupier residents in Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council who have qualified to have energy saving measures installed in their homes (approx households).

The interviews will seek to explore residents' experiences, knowledge and wisdom as well as valued aspects of their home and the retrofit process to understand where gaps lie and what needs to change to encourage others to invest personal finance.


4.

Collate and finalise a report summarising outcomes from semi-structured interviews to provide an overview of the opportunities and challenges around owner occupier whole energy house retrofits and what needs to happen, and by who, to stimulate further uptake more widely.


For informal enquiries about the post please contact Professor Jo Patterson (Director of Research) / Dr Emmanouil Perisoglou (Lecturer)

This post is full-time and available immediately. This post is fixed-term for 12 months.

Appointments to roles at Cardiff University are usually made at bottom of scale.



Closing date:
Sunday, 18 August 2024

This post has previously been advertised to employees of Cardiff University only. We now invite external applications.

Please be aware that Cardiff University reserves the right to close this vacancy early should sufficient applications be received.


Cardiff University is committed to supporting and promoting equality and diversity and to creating an inclusive working environment.

We believe this can be achieved through attracting, developing, and retaining a diverse range of staff from many different backgrounds.

We therefore welcome applicants from all sections of the community regardless of sex, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, trans identity, relationship status, religion or belief, caring responsibilities, or age.

In supporting our employees to achieve a balance between their work and their personal lives, we will also consider proposals for flexible working or job share arrangements.

Applications may be submitted in Welsh, and an application submitted in Welsh will not be treated less favourably than an application submitted in English.

Cardiff University is a signatory to the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA), which means that in hiring and promotion decisions we will evaluate applicants on the quality of their research, not publication metrics or the identity of the journal in which the research is published.
