Job description This post-doctoral research fellowship is funded by the Foundation for Baltic and East European Studies and is located within the research project: “Sustaining Civil Society in the Context of Multiple Crises: Hubs of Engagement in Central and Eastern Europe and Sweden”. The project is running between 2023 and 2028 and is located at the department of Social Work at the School of Social Sciences. The project consists of an international and transdisciplinary research team. The project includes Poland, Hungary, Romania, Serbia, Czechia, and Sweden, so we strongly recommend that your doctoral research has a geographical link to the Baltic Sea region and/or the post-communist area of Europe, and either offers a comparative approach or includes other countries in the region, that are not yet included in the project. We would like to encourage candidates who have knowledge and experience in using quantitative methods in studying digital data, e.g. social network analysis or social media analysis.

The duties of a postdoctoral research fellow primarily include research and taking part in the activities of the research group but may also include the development of research activities and participation in the academic community through assignments as reviewer, external expert and lecturer. Administrative duties may also occur (such as organisation of seminars, workshops and conferences, and planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of multidisciplinary research projects).

This requirement must be fulfilled at the time the decision on employment is made.

Primary consideration should be given to someone who was awarded the above qualifications within the three years prior to the deadline for application for employment as a postdoctoral research fellow. Someone who has a doctoral degree or a qualification from abroad that is equivalent to a doctoral degree from an earlier date may be considered if there are exceptional circumstances. Exceptional circumstances are leave due to ill health, parental leave, positions of trust in trades union organisations, service in the Swedish armed forces, or other similar circumstances, as well as clinical practice or other practice/commissions relevant to the subject.

The candidate must also have the personal skills necessary to do the job well and to represent the University in a way that benefits its activities.
