The Institute for Social and Economic Research (ISER) at the University of Essex (UK) have a vacancy at the full professor level for a quantitative social scientist.
We seek a person who will consolidate and extend ISER's world-class reputation in quantitative analysis of social science research issues. We seek a social scientist with the capabilities and vision to address developing research agendas in an innovative manner and in a multidisciplinary context. (Disciplinary affiliation per se of the post-holder is less important.) The candidate is expected to undertake a programme of research and to lead a team of researchers, to secure funding for new projects, and to supervise research students and teach occasional courses. There are no undergraduate teaching duties currently associated with the post.
