The position below is being advertised on http://www.jobs.ed.ac.uk/
I'd encourage members of this list to consider it, and also to pass on
word to others.
The intellectual challenge: investment managers control around $100
trillion, the bulk of the world?s financial capital. Help us
understand how they choose where to invest it.
The context: the School of Social and Political Science, in a large,
predominantly qualitative project led by Professor Donald MacKenzie
and funded by the European Research Council: Evaluation Practices in
Financial Markets (EPIFM).
The successful candidate will have either a PhD in the social sciences
and experience of similar research, together with a reasonable
background in mathematics; or extensive academic/practitioner
experience of finance.
This fixed-term post is available from 1 September 2012 to 31 August
2015. Appointment will be made on the Grade 7 Scale, £30,122 - £35,938.
