15 November 2022
Edinburgh
Full-Time
We are seeking an Open Research practitioner to help deliver the Research Data Service archiving solutions to University staff and students.
The Opportunity:
Join the Research Data Service to help provide support for research data management, and to moderate submissions to the two University research data archives: Edinburgh DataShare, an open access data repository, and DataVault, a restricted-access long-term retention solution. We are seeking a Research Data Support Assistant to work with the Research Data Support team in Library Research Support to provide this key digital research service for the University community. This is an excellent opportunity for an early career researcher to apply their research skills to promote academic culture change for data sharing and Open Science/Research in a service role.
Your skills and attributes for success:
1. Experience of working in a research environment
2. Knowledge of good practice in research data management
3. Computing and online skills
4. Demonstrated verbal and written communication skills
If invited for interview you will be required to evidence your right to work in the UK. Further information is available on our right to work webpages.
On this occasion the University will not consider applicants requiring sponsorship for this role. International workers will therefore only be able to take up this role if they can demonstrate an alternative right to work in the UK.
