The post
The Faculty wishes to recruit a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to participate in the UKRI funded Energy Demand Research Centre (EDRC). The Energy Demand Research Centre undertakes research for an affordable and secure low energy future. Our interdisciplinary research programme identifies evidence-based energy demand reductions for a sustainable and more equitable future. Our interdisciplinary and collaborative research programme is arranged in five main research themes of Futures, Flexibility, Place, Governance and Equity. These themes cut across different scientific disciplines from engineering to social sciences, exploring the combined technological, economic and societal solutions that can deliver energy demand reductions in buildings, transport and industry. For further information on EDRC, please visit the project’s webpage: https://www.edrc.ac.uk/.
The successful applicant will join the Equity Theme of EDRC. They will conduct a mixture of qualitative and quantitative work to build a comprehensive picture of intersecting energy-related inequities impacting different sociodemographic groups across the UK regions. This will include data collection amongst those with lived experience of energy inequities and with a wide range of stakeholders, using e.g. interviews, focus groups, surveys and a Delphi study. Secondary data analysis of e.g. the English Housing Survey and Understanding Society will complement the work.

We are looking for a passionate individual who is committed to conducting outstanding research with the potential for real-world impact who has an appropriate research track record for their career stage. Experience in qualitative and basic quantitative data collection and analysis is required. Prior experience related to energy inequalities is required or a strong desire to learn about these.
The successful applicant will also be able to work collaboratively, supervise the work of others and act as team leader as required. Applicants will have the opportunity to lead on research outputs and dissemination activities and will be embedded in a network of interdisciplinary European research partners.
