Overview

The University of New England (UNE) is investing in the strategic enhancement of research capability in a number of areas through the creation of six fixed-term postdoctoral research lectureships/fellowships. Three such lectureships have already been allocated. Applications are now being sought for the remaining three positions in the areas of Biophysics of Soil Carbon; Resilience of Freshwater Ecosystems; and this position in the area of Society, Sexuality and Sexual Health.

This position, to be located in the Faculty of The Professions, will be a member of a collaborative research team with the focal objective of enhancing and extending UNE’s research and scholarship role in Society, Sexuality and Sexual Health.

The successful appointee will work with senior and other academics at UNE, and postgraduate research students in conducting a range of activities including preliminary and background work for grant writing, project development and mining of data that will allow a significantly increased capacity to achieve the project outcomes. Strategically, this position will add new strengths that build upon the research team’s collective work in research and scholarship, as well as their ongoing connection with major sexuality research centres of excellence in Australia and internationally to establish a regional hub for sexuality and sexual health research at UNE.

The successful applicant will take an active role in the design and implementation of this research; will develop and lead their own research activities; and will work within the research program developed by the senior researchers of this project.

Applicants must have: a PhD in the social sciences or health area; demonstrated ability to take initiatives and independently develop research proposals; and a demonstrated ability to communicate research outcomes and research ideas.
