Job Details

A fantastic opportunity to join UK in a Changing Europe’s Research Team, providing important contributions towards this academic think tank’s central objective of making social scientific research available to key non-academic stakeholders.

The incoming Research Assistant will contribute to the varied activities of ‘UKICE’ through helping to produce original research outputs, tracking ongoing policy debates, and assisting with the organisation of UK-wide surveys, detailed reports and interactive ‘hybrid’ online and in-person events.

The appointee will be afforded the opportunity to research both into developments within the European Union and the evolving UK relationship with the EU, as well as into the UK’s wider domestic and foreign policy agenda, post-Brexit.

Both PhD and master’s-level researchers will be considered for the role, though a research interest in UK/European politics or economics is a prerequisite. The chosen candidate will, however, have established experience of working within a busy, successful research team and will have a clear, accessible and accurate written style.

Note: The chosen candidate will be expected to work from UKICE’s central London offices at least 2-3 days a week.

Closing Date: 10 April 2022

Interview/Start Dates

The selection process will include a panel interview, potentially held remotely on Microsoft Teams or Zoom, and a short, written test, both to take place in mid-to-late April.

The succesful candidate's contract will begin on the 1st May 2022, subject to notice period.
