About the Roles
The Research Fellow/s will work on the NHRA-funded research project “Natural hazards and resilience in complex urban systems”.

Both Research Fellows will be expected to undertake document analysis and face-to-face interviews and/or focus groups. You will be a key team member in the collection and analysis of data.
To be successful in this position, you’ll have:
- Evidence of experience in social science research methods, including both qualitative and quantitative research methods.
- Ability to conduct timely management of research projects and coordinate teams.
- Evidence of experience in research on disaster preparedness, response and/or recovery.
- Emerging track record and recognition for quality research outputs evidenced by academic or non-academic publications, new research initiatives, competitive research funding, or industry links.
- Ability to build effective networks with colleagues
Qualifications:
Mandatory: PhD or Masters in relevant field such as (but not limited to) urban studies; disaster and/or climate resilience; the social sciences (e.g., psychology or sociology); organisational studies; or fire, civil or humanitarian engineering.
