4 weeks ago
Classification: Academic Level B/C
Salary package: $112,916 to $150,694 plus 17% superannuation
Terms: Full time, Continuing (contingent funded), funded until 31 December 2027

The Centre of Epidemiology for Policy and Practice, within the National Centre for Epidemiology and Population Health, focuses on policy- and practice-relevant research in partnership with beneficiaries and other stakeholders – including community, policy makers and practitioners – to generate evidence to improve health, equity and health care.
Tobacco smoking is the leading modifiable cause of disability and premature death globally, responsible for >8M deaths annually (>10% of all deaths) and is also the leading cause of burden of disease in Australia. It is a major driver of inequity in health, and our research has shown that 50% of deaths in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples aged 45 and over are attributable to tobacco smoking.
Australia has recently committed to 5% or less adult daily smoking by 2030. Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) are an increasing public health concern, with a range of identified health risks, particularly for youth, potential as an aid for individual smoking cessation, and uncertainties regarding many of their health impacts.
This is an exciting opportunity for a Research Fellow/Fellow to join a vibrant research team working on tobacco control, e-cigarettes and chronic disease. The successful applicant will work on epidemiological and public health projects related to the health impacts of e-cigarette use and chronic disease more broadly.
The Research Fellow/Fellow is expected to undertake work in all three areas of academic activity – research, education and service – including contributing to and potentially convening courses within the ANU Master of Public Health. The Research Fellow is required to supervise or mentor less senior staff, and undertake other leadership roles as applicable.
The staff member will contribute cooperatively to the overall intellectual life of the Centre, College and University.
The Research Fellow will normally have completed a relevant doctoral qualification or have equivalent qualifications or research experience. In addition, they may also be expected to have had post-doctoral research experience that has resulted in publications, conference papers, reports or professional or technical contributions that give evidence of research ability.
A Fellow will normally have advanced qualifications and/or recognised significant experience in the relevant discipline area. A position at this level will normally require a doctoral qualification or equivalent accreditation and standing. In determining experience relative to qualifications, regard shall be had to teaching experience, experience in research, experience outside tertiary education, creative achievement, professional contributions and/or to technical achievement.
In addition, a position at this level will normally require a record of demonstrable scholarly and professional achievement in the relevant discipline area.
ANU values diversity and inclusion and is committed to providing equal employment opportunities to those of all backgrounds and identities.
