Brunel University London was established in 1966 and is a leading multidisciplinary research-intensive technology university delivering economic, social and cultural benefits.

Applications are invited for a Research Fellow to work on a 4 month research project: "Examining Masterplanning Practices".

The research fellow will conduct under the supervision of Prof Degen a literature review; observe and conduct interviews with planners, policy makers and architects involved in designing or implementing master plans; and draft articles for publication.

You must be able to work both independently and as part of a team with the ability to initiate, plan, organise, implement and deliver a programme of work to tight deadlines.

You should have in-depth knowledge in one or more of the following areas:

Materiality, embodiment & space, urban regeneration
Set up and conduct qualitative research projects (ethnography/interviews)
Analyse qualitative and quantitative (basic) data
Experience in writing reports and academic articles
Project management
Writing for academic and nonacademic publications

Brunel has a strong track-record of securing research funding from EU and other international sources.

Regardless of the long-term future for UK participation in Horizon Europe, Brunel will continue to ensure that staff have access to non-EU research funding, and we will continue to support our many bilateral collaborations within the EU and will remain an active member of YERUN.

We offer a generous annual leave package plus discretionary University closure days, excellent training and development opportunities as well as a great occupational pension scheme and a range of health-related support.

The University is committed to a hybrid working approach.

Interviews will take place week commencing 8 April 2024.
