EPRC is seeking to appoint two Research Assistants or Research Associates to contribute to the comparative European policy research undertaken in the Centre. The appointees would participate in academic and policy research programmes on regional development, particularly with respect to the design and regulation of national regional policies, EU Competition policy and regional aid, and the implementation of European Structural and Investment Funds. The post would suit an applicant with a relevant first degree and subsequent work experience on regional development or potentially a post-doctoral researcher in a relevant discipline. Applicants will need to have complete fluency in English and complete fluency in one or more of the following languages: Dutch, French, German. The post would be for two years in the first instance, with the possibility of renewal thereafter. Although the main EPRC base is at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, a new, secondary base is being established at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands; one or both appointees should be willing to be based mainly in Delft or work from there for extended periods if required.
Further information on the application process and working at Strathclyde can be found on our website in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Science section. Informal enquiries about the post can be directed to Professor John Bachtler, Director (0141 548 3339) or to Fiona Wishlade, Director (0141 548 3061).
