    Description

    Postdoctoral Research Fellow in European Union Law

    College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, School of Law.

    Fixed Term for four years - 1 st September 2024 to 31 st August 2028

    Full time: 35 hours per week

    We are looking for a committed and enthusiastic academic to join Edinburgh Law School as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in EU Law. This is a fixed term post available until the 31 st August 2028 and part of an exciting new 4-year research project funded by the Leverhulme Trust entitled "Taming the Dark Energy of EU Law: The European Union's Unwritten Constitution". The successful applicant will be based in the Law School and work closely with Professor Niamh Nic Shuibhne and the project's PhD researcher.

    The successful candidate should have advanced subject knowledge of EU law with expertise in EU constitutional law and the legal dimensions of EU external action. They will have either completed a PhD (or be very close to completion) in EU law or have equivalent professional experience. They will be expected to develop and execute a realistic and achievable research plan, and to play a full part in the collegiate life of the project team, the EU Law Subject Area, and the Law School.

    Edinburgh Law School is an international, vibrant community dedicated to research and teaching with local and global reach and diverse impacts. Our Law School would not be the community it is without our staff and students, and we welcome applications from under-represented groups.

    All applicants must submit a short research proposal (max 2 pages), outlining their approach to the proposed research project, a CV, and a cover letter. Applicants are also asked to identify their two strongest publications (which may include work under review or accepted but not published, such as a PhD thesis chapter) and explain why – in their view – these publications are both original and significant (a form is provided to facilitate the completion of this step).

    For informal inquiries, please contact Prof Niamh Nic Shuibhne, Principal Investigator and Head of the EU Law Subject Area,

    The Opportunity:

    Complementing the work of a PhD researcher on the EU as an international actor , the Postdoctoral Research Fellow will explore how the EU has matured as an international subject and determine the extent to which the EU's limited openness to external scrutiny reflects the constitutional standards projected inwards by the specific and essential characteristics.

    Your skills and attributes for success:

    • Ability to develop a research plan in the area(s) of expertise, including through high quality publications.
    • Ability to plan and organise own workload, with guidance from and under the direction of the project PI, in order to meet the strategic aims of the project and ensure successful delivery of the research programme.
    • Excellent communication skills.
    • A commitment to promoting a collegial, nurturing, and mutually supportive working environment.
    • A commitment to equality, diversity, and inclusion across all activities.
