About the Role

We are seeking a dedicated Research Associate to join our Centre for Transformative Media Technologies at Swinburne University of Technology.

In this role, you will assist lead investigators with publishing journal articles, book chapters, and other publications, working in liaison with Indigenous community and museum partners, completing projects, and supporting administrative aspects of research leader roles.

As the Research Associate, you will be expected to undertake independent scholarly activity and apply for research funding commensurate with opportunity and expertise.

The position requires limited periods of fieldwork in regional South Australia, which will necessitate a valid Driver's Licence and the ability to travel and work at various locations.

  • Demonstrate experience in supporting research activities collaboratively in a multidisciplinary environment.
  • Demonstrate understanding of research in the university context with the ability to use a variety of research methods, including skills in archival research and oral history research methods.
  • Demonstrate a research publication track record commensurate with experience and a track record of contribution to grant project application and/or delivery.
  • Demonstrate well-grounded, substantial experience in working collaboratively with Australian Indigenous peoples and communities.
  • Demonstrate high-level communication and consulting experience, including established links with relevant industries and organisations.
  • Ability or potential to attract research funding from sources external to the university or to contribute to funded research projects and high-quality scholarship within the areas of Indigenous studies, visual anthropology, history, or other discipline relevant to preserving Indigenous cultural heritage and contributing to Indigenous truth-telling.
Qualifications

An earned doctoral qualification relevant to the projects, such as in Australian History, Indigenous studies, Anthropology, Museology, or other relevant social science disciplines, is required.
