Postdoctoral Researcher in Food Information and Consumption
18 hours ago
Aarhus BSS, Aarhus University, is seeking a highly skilled postdoctoral researcher to join the INFOODMATION research project. This 2.5-year position offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research on how media and marketing influence food consumption.
About the ProjectThe INFOODMATION project aims to increase knowledge of how media and marketing as sources of food information affect food consumption and use this to develop best practices for food system actors, policies, and regulations to support healthier and more sustainable dietary patterns.
The project will identify approaches, tools, channels, techniques, and messages used by the private sector, governments, and civil society to communicate about food, focusing on vulnerable groups such as children, adolescents, and those of a low socio-economic status.
These effects will be assessed, alongside the effectiveness of parental control, the impact of negative vs. positive messages, and the effects and spread of misinformation (and how to counter it).
The project applies an interdisciplinary, multi-method approach by integrating and connecting expertise, methods, and knowledge from different areas such as marketing, media communication, psychology, sociology, and information systems.
The project contributes to the general marketing field as well as to the study of how to communicate healthy and sustainable food consumption.
Job ResponsibilitiesThe successful candidate will contribute to the overall objectives of the project by being involved in project management, data collection, and data analysis.
The candidate will also contribute to other phases of the research process, including writing academic papers and reports, dissemination of results, and participation in meetings and ongoing tasks in the collaboration with other researchers in the project team.
The position is research-oriented but may involve teaching assignments.
Qualifications and RequirementsCandidates must hold a PhD relevant to the academic areas of the Department of Management and the MAPP Centre, preferably in marketing, communication, and/or psychology.
Strong verbal and written communication skills are valued, as well as the ability to work as part of a team.
A proven track record with complex stakeholder and project management is desired, as well as publication experience.
Working EnvironmentAarhus BSS unites the business and social science-related research fields and brings them closer together to reflect the close relationship between society and the business community.
Aarhus BSS is one of the six departments at Aarhus University and has achieved the distinguished AMBA and EQUIS accreditations.
The department's research and teaching environment is highly international and culturally diverse with a mix of Danish and international academic staff members and PhD students.
