Job Title: Postdoctoral Research Associate in Communities and Environmental Change

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our team at Queen Mary University of London. The successful candidate will play a key role in a major new project entitled "Resilience of Anthropocene Coasts and Communities (RACC)", which aims to assess and respond to urban and post-industrial coastal risks.

About the Project

The RACC project is a £3m multi-disciplinary initiative that will investigate the interlinked risks of climate change, coastal flooding and erosion, and the UK's historic waste legacy. The project will develop coastal community and ecosystem resilience, and the successful candidate will work with communities and policy makers to explore and co-develop policy options and practical actions.

About the Role

The postdoctoral researcher will be responsible for leading on the delivery of public engagement activities with multiple communities and the development of resilience strategies. This will involve data collection from interviews, surveys, participatory creative workshops, literature reviews, and the production of key outputs such as peer-reviewed publications, policy briefs, and community engagement materials.

About the School

The School of Geography at Queen Mary University of London is internationally recognized for its theoretically informed, empirically grounded, and politically engaged research. We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive community, and we welcome applications from candidates from all backgrounds.

What We Offer

We offer a competitive salary of £40,223 per annum, 30 days' leave per annum, access to a pension scheme, and a season ticket loan scheme. We also offer enhanced family-friendly leave and an on-site nursery at the Mile End campus. Our commitment to our diverse and inclusive community is embedded in our appointments processes, and we will make reasonable adjustments at each stage of the recruitment process for any candidate with a disability.
