Our multi-disciplinary community of scholars offers a unique opportunity for research and teaching on all aspects of conflict, war, security, and defence.
Job OverviewWe are seeking a postdoctoral researcher to assist on an Economics and Social Research Council funded project titled The International Relations of Tropical storms in the Caribbean.

Additionally, you should have high competence in interacting with various stakeholders and a track record in research dissemination. Enthusiasm for stakeholder engagement and a strong motivation to contribute to knowledge through high-impact academic research are essential qualities for this role.
This is a PhD-level position, but candidates who have submitted their thesis and are awaiting award of their PhDs will be considered. In these circumstances, the appointment will be made at Grade 5, spine point 30, with the title of Research Assistant. Upon confirmation of the award of the PhD, the job title will become Research Associate and the salary will increase to Grade 6.
