*Apologies for cross-posting*
We have two exciting opportunities at the University of Sheffield for
social science researchers to work in our multi-disciplinary Sustainable
Care Programme, within teams working on Achieving sustainability in care
systems: the potential of technology and Combining work and care: how do
workplace support and technologies contribute to sustainable care
arrangements?. As part of the broader SC research team, and in
collaboration with UK and overseas partners, you will also contribute to
the development, delivery and outputs of the SC programme and participate
in its programme-wide activities: including theoretical and methodological
work on care, sustainability and wellbeing; the SC early career researcher
network; and delivery of the SC impact strategy.
Achieving sustainability in care systems: the potential of technology
You will have knowledge of social care arrangements in the UK and
experience of developing, evaluating or studying technologies, preferably
in care settings. You will have an established interest in research on
older or disabled people with support needs, and of publishing / writing up
research results. Candidates with interests in, and knowledge of, the
development and marketing of technologies for use in the homes of people
with support needs are particularly encouraged to apply.
Combining work and care: how do workplace support and technologies
contribute to sustainable care arrangements?
You will be a social scientist with expertise in qualitative research, and
with the ability and skills needed to work effectively with international
academic, employer and policy partners. Candidates with an established
interest in working carers (employed people who care for or support a
relative or friend who needs help because of illness, disability or in old
age), or in schemes designed to improve workplace support for people with
care responsibilities (including those using technology) are particularly
encouraged to apply. Ideally, you will also have a record of publishing the
results of studies on which you have previously worked.
Closing date
Monday 29th April
All application must be made via the University of Sheffield jobs website.
