Project - Breaking Networks of Youth Serious Violence in the UK funded by the Nuffield Foundation
The overall research aim is to apply a relational (network) approach to understand and break networks of serious violence among young people.

Fixed term: the funds for this post are available for 18 months.

Applicants must have (or be about to obtain) a PhD in Social Sciences with a strong quantitative component, or in the border Network Science field including Computer Science, Physics and Public Health (specific requirements are detailed in the Further Particulars). Previous experience of studying crime-related themes, including violence is desirable but not essential.
Appointment at Research Associate level is dependent on having a PhD. Those who have submitted but not yet received their PhD will be appointed at Research Assistant level, which will be amended to Research Associate once the PhD has been awarded.
Salary Ranges: Research Assistant: £29,605 - £33,966 Research Associate: £36,024 - £44,263
