About the Project

The vacant position forms part of the research project 'Frontiers of natural resource and sustainability governance for a just energy transition' (FRONTIERS), located at the Department of Management, Society and Communication (MSC).

  • Actors and processes that are conducive to transmitting good practices across organisations, sectors and regions
Responsibilities

The postdoctoral researcher will be expected to collaborate closely with the overall FRONTIERS team and engage with diverse project-related tasks, such as literature synthesis, writing up of empirical studies, undertaking fieldwork, and collaboration with academic and practitioner partners and the wider scientific community.

Requirements

  • Research potential and research relevant to the job description
  • Previous experience in field work, research project management and ability to work with diverse sets of stakeholders
  • Willingness to live in Denmark
  • Professional proficiency in English (written and spoken)
