The Oxford University Centre for Corporate Reputation is a leading research hub at the University of Oxford, dedicated to exploring how organisations manage social evaluations such as reputation, status, celebrity, legitimacy, stigma and trust.

You should have experience with case studies and ethnographic research, an interest in discursive or communicative perspectives, and the ability to work both independently and collaboratively. Excellent oral and written communication skills are essential, along with a proven track record of publishing in top social science journals.
