<![CDATA[Research Associate (ED13354)]]> /jobs/rss/click.aspx?ref=ED13354 /jobs/rss/click.aspx?ref=ED13354 About us

The Department of Education is seeking a talented mixed-methods researcher with expertise in international student mobility (ISM) and/or online distance education (ODE) to join the project ‘Virtual Mobilities of International Students: towards a new model for the internationalisation of higher education?’ (VIRMOBS) funded by the Open Research Area in the Social Sciences (ORA). 

VIRMOBS is an international, comparative mixed-methods project led by Social Scientists in Canada, France and the UK. 

It examines forms of ISM where students enrol on Online Distance Education (ODE) programmes outside their home countries instead of physically travelling abroad. 

VIRMOBS seeks to examine the implications of virtual mobilities for learning, cultural experience, social inclusion, quality assurance, the value of credentials, and online security. 

It asks: are virtual mobilities more sustainable, inclusive forms of ISM, or are they low-value alternatives likely to exacerbate existing inequalities? How do different national policy and regulatory contexts influence the shape and impact of virtual mobilities? VIRMOBS will combine socio-history, quantitative and qualitative methods to shed light on the national, institutional and individual logics underpinning virtual mobilities in the three countries under study: Canada, France and the UK. We will conduct documentary research, student surveys and interviews with staff and students in three contrasting case-study universities in each of the three countries. 

About the role

You will join the UK team and be based in the Department of Education at the Âé¶¹´«Ã½. 

You will contribute to all aspects of the project with a primary focus on the UK case. 

This will include conducting desk research (literature reviews, documentary and policy analysis) and fieldwork, in particular interviews (university staff; online students) and analysing both statistical and qualitative data. 

You will collaborate with UK, France and Canada-based researchers, present findings at national and international conferences and contribute to scholarly publications with the project team.

About you 

You will have: 

  • A PhD in a social science discipline such as Sociology, Geography or Education
  • Expertise in both quantitative and qualitative research methods. This includes survey design and analysis skills. 
  • An excellent understanding of the literature on international student mobility and/or global educational inequalities
  • An excellent understanding of the UK higher education policy context.
  • Demonstrated potential to publish in high quality, peer reviewed journals. 
  • An ability to work independently and collaboratively. 
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Excellent work ethics and demonstrable commitment to research quality and integrity.
  • Proficiency in French is desirable but not essential.

Additional information

As a member of Research Staff at the Âé¶¹´«Ã½, you will be encouraged to take up a minimum of 10 days professional development pro rata per year.

For an informal discussion about the role, please contact Aline Courtois (ac2630@bath.ac.uk) or Sazana Jayadeva (s.jayadeva@surrey.ac.uk).

This three-year Research Associate* (Post Doc) position will encompass predominantly working on a series of research projects, in a collaboration between the Stress, Anxiety, Resilience, and Thriving (StART) research group (Department for Health, Âé¶¹´«Ã½) and external sports organizations (e.g., UK Sports Institute). 

The research projects will be on the topic of thriving in sport and will include an examination of how sporting organizations can create optimal environments that promote positive mental health and enable athletes to “win well”, that is, experience thriving (the joint experience of success and development). 

Specifically, the research will unpick how performance and wellbeing (as proxies of success and development) can co-exist within the elite sport system and any tensions that might exist with their joint experience. Subsequently, it will involve tracking athletes’ thriving over time, and the development, implementation, and evaluation of an intervention to enable and support thriving in elite sport. 

In addition to the aforementioned research projects, the Research Associate will support the Principal Investigator (Professor Rachel Arnold) with additional responsibilities. Examples include supervision of doctoral students, research assistance on existing grants, preparing grant bids, writing-up completed research and impact projects, and supporting the smooth running of the StART research group. As a member of Research Staff at the Âé¶¹´«Ã½, you will be encouraged to take up a minimum of 10 days professional development pro rata per year.

Our ideal candidate

The Research Associate will need to have expertise in quantitative and qualitative methodologies, and science communications to disseminate the findings into elite sport policy and practice. 

Thus, they should have experience of being able to create and maintain good relationships with external partners. 

Additionally, the Research Associate will require excellent time and project management skills, high levels of initiative, and strong verbal and written communication skills. 

Additional information

*If you have not yet been awarded your PhD/Prof Doc, you will need to have at least submitted your thesis in order to be offered this Grade 7 role (if successful). 

This offer would be subject to you passing your viva with or without minor corrections and your PhD/Prof Doc being awarded within your six-month probation period. 

Please note that an offer may be withdrawn, or probation failed, if a PhD/Prof Doc viva is not passed or passed with major corrections. 

The University’s normal probationary requirements apply in all other respects. 

A lower grade offer may be made with comparable reduction in responsibilities (and amendment in job title to Research Assistant) if a suitable applicant cannot be found to fill the Grade 7 position. 

Grade 6 applicants will need to be within six months of submitting their PhD/Prof Doc thesis and will be promoted to Research Associate once their doctorate has been awarded.

<![CDATA[Marketing Officer (ED13324)]]> /jobs/rss/click.aspx?ref=ED13324 /jobs/rss/click.aspx?ref=ED13324 We are looking for a talented Marketing Officer to join us on a fixed-term basis (12 months). 

This is a unique opportunity to contribute to a strategically important project and then support our wider marketing activities.

About the Role

This is a dynamic time to join as we roll out recommendations from our recent Education Portfolio Review. Your initial focus will be on portfolio development work, which will involve:

  • Researching competitor courses and assessing their positioning relative to ours
  • Identifying key messaging and differentiation opportunities
  • Preparing marketing reviews and action plans to inform future activity

This work requires strong analytical skills and an understanding of marketing strategy and portfolio development. While there is a general framework to draw on, each project will have a different emphasis and may require building a bank of insights to inform our strategy. You will need to apply independent thinking and judgment on how to tackle the required analysis, with support and guidance from the Faculty’s Head of Product and Business Development. This is a fixed piece of work, working with a small group of stakeholders, and is anticipated to take a few months to deliver.

Once this phase is complete, you will transition to support the Faculty Marketing Team where you will contribute to campaigns, help with content planning, and support other key recruitment initiatives. This work is fast-paced, and you will be confident working with a range of stakeholders at different levels, both within the Faculty and with colleagues in other faculties and central teams including recruitment and marketing. You will join a team that takes pride in building strong working relationships, developing new initiatives, and delivering results.

Because of the dual nature of the role, we are looking for a strong all-round marketer who can combine strategic thinking with practical delivery.

You should also have excellent organisational skills, be a good team player, and be able to successfully manage your workload as well as stakeholder expectations.

  • Formal marketing qualification (CIM or equivalent) or strong evidence of marketing training
  • Experience in marketing strategy and portfolio development, including competitor analysis and product positioning
  • Ability to synthesize complex data into actionable insights
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills
  • Curious, proactive, and comfortable working independently

Why Join Us?

You’ll be part of a collaborative team in a dynamic environment, with the chance to shape our course portfolio and influence future marketing strategies.

This is a full-time, fixed-term post (for 12 months), but applications are also welcomed from candidates seeking a 0.8 FTE (29.2 hours per week) role.

<![CDATA[Bath Insights Internship (CC13241)]]> /jobs/rss/click.aspx?ref=CC13241 /jobs/rss/click.aspx?ref=CC13241 Available exclusively to Âé¶¹´«Ã½ students, Bath Insights provides the opportunity to gain work experience across various University departments on campus for a fixed-term period from 1 June 2026 to 24 July 2026 

The format varies between departments, but all internships are on-campus or hybrid. There are no remote-only internships, as a key part of completing an internship is gaining experience of working with colleagues in a professional working environment.

Eligibility

The programme is open to most Âé¶¹´«Ã½ undergraduate students in years one and two. If you’re studying a distance learning course or visiting the University on an exchange, you’re not eligible to apply. You're also not able to apply if you have already completed a Bath Insights internship.

Available opportunities

You’re not able to apply to a specific internship, as this programme is designed to offer professional work experience across a range of areas, all of which will provide interesting and enriching experiences. The panel will review all applications, and shortlisted candidates will be invited to attend an Assessment Centre. If you are successful at that stage the panel will match you to the most appropriate internship.

All of the internships have been designed to give you the opportunity to gain work experience in a safe, supportive environment. Wherever you are placed, you will work on a real project, developing a range of sought-after skills and competencies, while being supported by the host department and the Careers Team. Every project will give you the chance to develop workplace skills and contribute blue skies thinking and practical solutions.

See an overview of potential projects

You will have the opportunity to indicate on your application if you have a particular interest in a Project theme.

Your skills and attributes

We know finding work experience can be a real challenge for students in years one and two as organisations often ask for evidence of prior experience and skills you may not have had a chance to develop.  We also recognise that these internships are intended for students with minimal or no prior work experience, so we have designed the process to be as inclusive as possible. However, to be successful in any of these roles you will need to be someone who has:

  • Excellent written communication skills
  • Strong verbal communication skills
  • Effective planning and organising skills
  • Strong IT and digital skills; willingness to develop further IT skills
  • Experience of team working and awareness of different styles and approaches
  • A commitment to high quality customer service
  • A professional attitude and approach

Additionally, you’ll be: 

  • Able to take the initiative and be proactive
  • Able to cope with competing and shifting priorities and work towards deadlines
  • Enthusiastic, committed and resourceful

Selection process

Applications will be reviewed, and a shortlist of students will be invited to attend an Assessment Centre that will run in early March 2026. You’re not able to apply to a specific internship; instead, if you are successful, you will be matched by the panel to the most appropriate internship opportunity for you.

Questions and support

Bath Insights is run by Employability and Student Success in conjunction with colleagues across the University. All interns will receive a comprehensive onboarding and induction. If you have any questions about the programme, please contact internships@bath.ac.uk

Closing Date: 01 Feb 2026

Department: Management, Specialist and Administration

Salary: Appointments at Grade 2 will receive an additional pensionable supplement to ensure a minimum hourly pay equivalent to £12.60 in line with Voluntary Living Wage.
Free accommodation is provided for the duration of the internship.

The Âé¶¹´«Ã½ is embarking on a transformative initiative in preventative health and care innovation. We are seeking a leader with exceptional interpersonal skills and cross-sector experience to shape and drive this new strategic priority in a role that represents a significant step-change in our ambition to enhance civic impact and contribute meaningfully to national health and care priorities. This is a unique moment. The UK Government's Life Sciences Vision and the NHS 10-year plan emphasise a profound shift towards preventative care, moving from hospital to community, analogue to digital, and treatment to prevention. The Âé¶¹´«Ã½ is uniquely positioned to lead in this space. Without a medical school, we have the freedom to explore and enable health and care in new ways, drawing on our breadth of expertise across public health, sport and exercise science, psychology, life sciences, engineering and management.

As our inaugural Director of Preventative Health & Care Innovation, you will be a catalyst and pathfinder. Your mandate is to forge strategic connections between our world-class academic researchers and external partners including NHS Trusts, Integrated Care Systems, local authorities, and health and care companies operating in a range of sectors. You will translate academic excellence into practice-based solutions that address real-world challenges and make a positive impact.

We need a proven innovation practitioner who understands value propositions and can identify market opportunities where partners recognise the commercial and social value of collaboration.

  • Translating academic research into practice-based pilots and real-world solutions
  • Building and leading a team of innovation practitioners to expand institutional capability
  • Representing the University in national forums and regional health strategy discussions
  • Developing new impact pathways and income sources including contract research, CPD, and consultancy
  • Overseeing our inaugural strategic partnership with Bath, Swindon, Wiltshire Hospitals, serving as a blueprint for future partnerships

 About you:

  • Proven experience in preventative health, public health systems and/or social care transformation
  • Strong track record in service innovation and knowledge translation into practice
  • Evidence of securing partnerships and understanding commercial viability in health and care contexts
  • Excellent leadership and team-building skills, with the ability to inspire and galvanise academics
  • Outstanding stakeholder management across academics, health systems, and commercial environments
  • Experience in securing funding and delivering innovation projects that generate measurable impact
  • Ability to translate between the different languages of academia, health systems, and business
  • Understanding of NHS commissioning, integrated care systems, and community care delivery

 Experience as a clinician or in health and care companies is highly desirable, bringing practical credibility and insight into how solutions are developed and commercialised.

Further information:

This is a full-time, fixed-term position for 24 months, with potential to evolve as the initiative develops. The role is based at the Âé¶¹´«Ã½ with hybrid working options. Some travel will be required to engage with partners and stakeholders across the region and nationally.

You will be supported by a Strategic Partnership Manager and empowered to recruit additional practitioner expertise as the initiative grows. This role is funded by the Vice-Chancellor's Strategic Investment Fund, demonstrating the institution's commitment to this strategic priority

About us

From the Centre to the Periphery project aims to develop the policy solutions that are needed to close gaps in education and skills across the UK to ensure opportunity is not constrained by geography. 

It adopts a quasi-experimental methodological research design, that includes both large-scale analysis of Linked Educational Outcomes (LEO) data with qualitative case study research across 12 locations in England. The work is funded by the UKRI Trial Accelerator Fund (TAF). 

The UKRI Creating Opportunities Trial Accelerator Fund is aimed at enabling the research and innovation community to test interventions that will spread opportunities and reduce spatial disparities in economic, health and social outcomes for people and places across the UK.

Whilst part of the wider project team, you will sit within the Brunel Centre. The Brunel Centre is a new research and insight hub launched by the Âé¶¹´«Ã½, University of the West of England (UWE Bristol) and Futures West, with £4.5 million in funding from Research England. It provides independent, real-time, open-access data for and about the West of England economy, helping businesses, investors, and policymakers make better decisions across areas such as productivity, skills, innovation, trade and investment.

Our ideal candidate

The successful applicant will be passionate about experimental methodologies in social science research, especially that which produces evidence that is impactful on public policy.

You will be

  • skilled in communicating complex experimental methods in an easily accessible way to promote the uptake and use of these methodologies in the wider scientific community. 
  • supported by experts in experimental methodologies based in the Brunel Centre and academics from the Universities of Bath, Durham and Bristol who are part of the project team.
