Research Fellow or Research Assistant in Understanding Green Infrastructure Barriers and Enablers

2 months ago


Cranfield, United Kingdom Cranfield University Full time

Fixed Term Contract for 24 months or until 14 November 2026, whichever is sooner

Research Assistant (if close to completing PhD): £34,450 per annum

Research Fellow (if PhD obtained): £37,337 to £41,406 per annum

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral Research Fellow or Research Assistant, in Understanding barriers and enablers for effective green infrastructure interventions.

About the Role

Urban ecosystems are extensively fragmented by grey infrastructure, leading to a disconnect between the habitat fragments that support biological species and ecosystem resilience at landscape scales. Green and blue spaces in cities, and the functional biodiversity they support, help to improve urban resilience through services such as air quality improvement and reduced flood risk. However, we still do not know how best to configure green-blue-grey infrastructures at local (street or park) scales to optimise multiple benefits at landscape (neighbourhood or city) scales.

About You

We are seeking someone with a keen interest in, and broad understanding of, environmental social sciences, green infrastructure interventions, and environmental decision-making for this role. You will be experienced in, and comfortable with, applying mixed methods social science approaches, multi-disciplinary research, and engaging with stakeholders and local communities.

The role involves close collaboration with academics at Cranfield as well as project partners at Sheffield University, the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, and the Alan Turing Institute, and stakeholder and community groups in the study areas. As a result, the role requires excellent interpersonal and teamworking skills. You will also have excellent written and verbal communication skills, as well as an ability to produce high quality research outputs.

About Us

The focus of Cranfield Environment Centre is to transform the science of environmental solutions through a systems approach, spanning sensor and measurement technology, systems modelling, environmental informatics, data and decision science. The Centre covers research on air quality and climate change, soil quality, crop growth and monitoring, natural capital, resilience ecosystems goods and services.
