We are delighted to welcome applications for the position of Research Fellow within the Integrating Citizen Deliberation for Impact (i4i) project, an international collaboration to examine the variety of ways that national and subnational European climate assemblies have been differently connected to their respective political-administrative systems and how this shapes their polity, policy and political impacts (see: https://i4i-project.com/).

The post holder will develop the cross-cutting conceptual schemes and empirical analyses that unite the different work packages of the project. This will primarily include carrying out a comparative analysis of the integration and impacts of European climate assemblies and writing academic outputs that conceptualise integration and impacts of public participation, as well as presenting the findings of the empirical analysis of the relationship between the two. This work will be carried out under the supervision of Rikki Dean (principal investigator of the project).

This research position will be based in the Department of Politics and International Relations within the Faculty of Social Sciences, at the University of Southampton where Dr Dean is based. You will join a team of researchers based across the UK, Belgium, Germany and Poland, as well as a supportive Department that contains the largest concentration of democratic innovations scholars in Europe.

To be successful in either role you will have completed your PhD in a relevant discipline before April 2025 (or equivalent professional qualifications). You will have facility with building theoretical frameworks, as well as an interest in mixed-methods research; have the ability to plan and organise work independently and as part of a team; and have the ability to write research presentations and papers for peer review publication. Knowledge and experience of the subfield of democratic innovations and with using Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) is desirable.

The Research Fellow post is full-time for a fixed term until 30/04/2027 with a negotiable start date, but with an early start date being preferred.

The University of Southampton holds an Athena SWAN Silver Award demonstrating commitment to equal opportunities in the workplace.

Applications for Research Fellow positions will be considered from candidates who are working towards or nearing completion of a relevant PhD qualification. The title of Research Fellow will be applied upon successful completion of the PhD. Prior to the qualification being awarded the title of Senior Research Assistant will be given.

Informal enquiries may be addressed to Rikki Dean, email: r.j.dean@soton.ac.uk.

Overall, this tenure track position is focused on concrete as a construction material, not its structural engineering aspects, and therefore the following topics are not relevant for this position: earthquake engineering, 3D printing of concrete, and chloride corrosion.

We are looking for an expert who is prepared to integrate and transform these aspects into high-level scientific research focused on concrete material technology. We particularly invite applications from candidates with expertise on the sustainability of concrete. We value a research portfolio with studies on low-carbon concretes, freeze-thaw resistance and other durability properties of concrete, non-destructive testing methods, or automated testing of concrete.

	Has experimental experience and technical and methodological skills relevant to the field. Complementary theoretical and computational experience is highly appreciated.

	Has potential to collaborate in an interdisciplinary environment. In this professorship, cooperation with national stakeholders – both industrial and authorities – will be important.
	Has potential to take responsibility for education and researcher training in the field
	Has ability to be an effective teacher in the undergraduate and graduate degree programmes of the School of Engineering
	Fluent command in English, which is the main language of teaching and research at Aalto - Knowledge of the Finnish language, industry and culture is seen as an advantage


Your merits and potential will be appraised based on your position-relevant research of concrete, teaching and academic leadership, and activity in scientific community and society.  A bibliometric analysis will be conducted for supporting the evaluation of research merits.
