We are one of the UK’s largest engineering faculties. Join our team, show us how to think even bigger – and we’ll help you explore what you are capable of, to inspire future generations of engineers at our world-renowned university.
Have you a passion for human factors and human behaviour in engineering? Do you apply your expertise to solve real-world problems, and can you share your knowledge with clarity and enthusiasm?
The Transportation Research Group at the University of Southampton is a unique place to explore what you are capable of. We undertake internationally leading research and inspire hundreds of students every year. Whether you’re pursuing a new career path in higher education, or looking to develop existing academic skills, the University of Southampton is the place to do something unique with your expertise.
Ranked in the top 1% of universities worldwide, we’re bold, progressive and keen to push the boundaries of what we’re teaching our students – and what we’re learning alongside them. So we actively encourage and support our lecturers to pursue their research and other activity in their fields of interest. After all, when everyone brings and shares their own ideas and findings, it helps us to stay at the forefront of thinking. Our reputation for teaching, research and enterprise is exceptional, and our team sustains some of the most modern and active Engineering laboratories in the UK.
For this role we are looking for someone wanting to take a first step on an academic career path. This post is offered for a fixed term period (to provide cover for an existing member of staff on a career break) but may be extendable depending on circumstances at the end of the period. Applicants with research and teaching experience in human factors are preferred, but wider human behaviour in transport backgrounds will also be considered.
To apply, you’ll need a PhD, or equivalent professional qualifications, research and teaching experience, and a collaborative approach to working across different research areas and disciplines. Whatever you bring to the team, we’ll support you to develop your presentation skills and keep making progress in our forward-thinking department.
Athena SWAN silver award recognised, we’re committed to improving equality for women in science and engineering, so we’ll help you find a good work/life balance with flexible or even part-time working hours. And, with access to onsite childcare facilities, our comprehensive benefits package also includes a contributory pension scheme, generous holiday allowance, subsidised health and fitness facilities, a cycle-to-work scheme and a range of discounts.
