Emergency Hostels

Starting salary: £24,273, rising annually to £26,524

This is a fixed term position for 12 months commencing on 1 July 2010.

A qualitative researcher is needed for a study which seeks to increase our 
understanding of the support needs of homeless drug users who stay in 
emergency hostels/nightshelters. The research is being funded by the Sir 
Halley Stewart Trust and will be conducted in collaboration with Dr Nat Wright, 
Leeds PCT and the University of Leeds. You will work with Professor Joanne 
Neale as part of a team and be involved in setting up the study and 
conducting semi-structured interviews with homeless drug users. You will also 
contribute to analysing the data and disseminating the findings in a range of 
media, including good practice guidelines. A good first degree, a PhD (or close 
to completion) in a social science subject, and experience of working with 
vulnerable adults in either a research or practice capacity are required. Some 
evening and weekend work may be necessary.

Please note: the successful applicant will need to be subject to a background 
disclosure check by the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) before any appointment
