Are you an ambitious researcher looking for your next challenge? Do you have a background in corpus linguistics and metaphor? Do you want to further your career in one of the UK's leading research intensive Universities?

This is a new role which has arisen through the award of an AHRC grant to Prof Alice Deignan to fund a project entitled 'Young people, figurative language and criticality'.

The project will combine corpus building and analysis with interviews and think aloud protocol tasks. The project partners are the Universities of Birmingham and Lancaster, Oxford University Press, and schools in Yorkshire and Birmingham.

The position starts on 1st October 2024, and the end date is 31st March 2027.

The successful candidate will be based at the University of Leeds, working on campus. They will work full-time on the project, leading some aspects of its activity, as appropriate and agreed with the rest of the project team. It will involve some travel, both national and international.
