    You will review the available evidence regarding local authority interventions that help address commercial drivers of health inequalities, develop a typology of interventions on the basis of this mapping with the aid of stakeholder workshops, and develop a database based on identified interventions.

  • Demonstrable post-doctoral or equivalent work experience in public health and commercial determinants of health, including but not limited to tobacco, alcohol, or ultra-processed food industries.
  • Relevant post-doctoral experience (or equivalent work experience) of conducting policy-focused interdisciplinary academic research.
