Open to ESRC funded PhD researchers from any SGSSS aligned university
SGSSS are seeking to appoint a current ESRC funded PhD student to the role of Associate Officer for Student Engagement. SGSSS Associate Officers represent the voices of the student community and are consulted on for their advice and expertise as PGRs.
The role holder will join an existing team of student Associate Officer and, as a key members of the SGSSS Directorate, contribute significantly to the development of social sciences postgraduate research and the formation of research leaders in Scotland and beyond. Work topics that Associate Officers focus on are identified through the strategic objectives of the SGSSS and funders, emergent issues identified by the Associate Officers based on their experiences, and information received from the wider PhD population.
The role is a “guaranteed hours” contract (averaging two hours per week, with a minimum of 35 hours per year). Roles will start as soon as possible in the 24/25 academic year and will be appointed for a two year term, including a review for both role holder and SGSSS at the one year anniversary.
This role is available to any current ESRC funded PhD student registered at an SGSSS partner university. (Given the existing team composition, the current vacancy is only available to students funded by the ESRC; future opportunities may be open more widely.)
