We are looking for a Postdoctoral Research Associate post for 8.5 months (Maternity cover) within the School of Psychology. The successful applications will join Dr James Reynolds' UKRI-funded grant titled "Maximising public support for health policies", in which the research will investigate why the public supports or opposes public health policies.
We are looking for a motivated and capable researcher to join our team and work at the intersection of social psychology, political psychology, and public health. This role involves taking over leadership of an existing project midway through its lifecycle and leading it successfully to completion.

In addition, the role offers opportunities to contribute to several other ongoing projects.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a team of post-doctoral researchers, PhD students, MSc students, international collaborators, and stakeholders within public health and policy.
