Located in heritage buildings in the beautiful and thriving capital city of Wales, the School of Social Sciences at Cardiff University is looking to appoint a Lecturer. In this role you will develop and deliver a range of teaching, particularly in quantitative methods in the School of Social Sciences through a commitment to high-quality and research-led teaching at both undergraduate and postgraduate level; to do so with and within the Q-Step Centre of Excellence in Quantitative Methods Teaching. You will also work closely with the School’s DECIPHer Research Centre, contributing to the overall research performance of the School.

Research programmes cover: Healthy public policy, Healthy social relationships, Healthy settings and organisations and Methodological innovation. It is located at the Social Science Research Park (SPARK) alongside a large number of other social science research centres and works closely with policy, practice and public partners.
