Job Purpose
You will contribute to the project The legal foundations for a civic financial system (“Civic Finance”) working with Prof. Javier Solana (“Principal Investigator” or “PI”).
The overarching objective of Civic Finance is to develop a complexity-informed theory of law and finance that can underpin the legal foundations of a civic financial system; in particular, a financial system that refrains from enabling unsustainable levels of CO2 emissions. Civic Finance is funded by a European Research Council Starting Grant (Grant Agreement No.: 101165302).
The PI is looking for two Research Assistants to support the development of the theoretical framework that will underpin Civic Finance. More specifically, the two Research Assistants will support the review of relevant academic literature that explores how organisations make decisions; in particular, how financial institutions select their corporate clients, and how financial institutions make decisions regarding specific financial products and services to offer to those clients. Research Assistant 1 will focus, predominantly, on academic literature that explores how culture and social norms might influence those decisions, while Research Assistant 2 will focus, predominantly, on how economic factors might influence those decisions. In specific sections, the job description identifies different requirements for each of the two posts. Where no distinction is made between the two posts, the requirements apply to both posts. Applicants are requested to indicate in their cover letter which of the two posts they are applying to.
Main Duties and Responsibilities
Perform the following activities in conjunction with and under the guidance of the Principal Investigator:
1. Plan and conduct assigned research individually or jointly in accordance with the project deliverables and the project’s research strategy.
2. Document research output including analysis and interpretation of all data, maintaining records and databases, drafting technical/progress reports and papers as appropriate.
3. Develop and enhance your research profile and reputation and that of The University of Glasgow/School/Research Group, including contributing to publications of international quality in high profile/quality refereed journals, enhancing the research impact in terms of economic/societal benefit, and gathering indicators of esteem.
4. Contribute to the presentation of work at international and national conferences, at internal and external seminars, colloquia and workshops to develop and enhance our research profile.
5. Contribute to the identification of potential funding sources and to assist in the development of proposals to secure funding from internal and external bodies to support future research.
6. Collaborate with colleagues and participate in project team meetings as well as in external seminars and workshops as part of the project.
7. Keep up to date with current knowledge and recent advances in the field/discipline.
8. Engage in continuing professional development activities as appropriate.
9. Undertake any other reasonable duties as required by the PI.
10. Contribute to the enhancement of the University’s international profile in line with the University’s Strategic Plan, Inspiring People Changing The World.
