Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) is a distinctive, unique institution, rooted in the Liverpool City Region and with a global presence. Our students and staff, past, present, and future, are the beating heart of our city and can be found in every corner of every industry and community. We couldn’t exist anywhere else and have shaped the city in which we belong. Working with the people of Liverpool to improve lives and support communities is at the heart of why we were founded and why we exist today.
A research assistant is required to work on a project for a duration of up to 8 months on a 0.2fte basis. A Masters graduate with experience of both quantitative and qualitative analyses is required. You will be responsible for liaising with clinical partners in the Pain Relief Foundation to sort patient records for outcomes, recruiting autistic adults who have chronic pain and have undergone pain management and interviewing autistic people about these experiences before analysing this qualitative data. You will join the SomAffect Lab group and will have the opportunity to attend this group's meetings.
In return, we offer an excellent benefits package including generous annual leave entitlement, pension scheme, induction, and development support as well as family-friendly policies.
This is an exciting time to join the university as we deliver the LJMU Strategy 2030 and its vision of LJMU as an inclusive civic university transforming lives and futures, by placing students at the heart of everything we do. Find out more about working at LJMU here.
