About the Role  

For informal enquiries, please contact Nigel Driffield (Professor - Strategy & International Business Group) at Nigel.Driffield@wbs.ac.uk

Following the recent funding of the ESRC productivity Institute, we are seeking to recruit a postdoctoral research fellow to work on a project concerned with FDI in batteries and related sectors, and the implications for productivity in the wider economy. This element is part of a larger project concerned with the drivers of productivity, involving collaborations with others at Warwick, as well as with the wider productivity institute.

You will work primarily with Professor Nigel Driffield on analysis of firm level data, both company level data to analyse the impacts of inward investment across regions and sectors, and to understand the drivers of these differences. This will also involve collaborating on another element of the project concerned with supply chains and productivity analysis.

  • Motives for FDI
  • Sectoral Analysis
  • Productivity analysis
  • Attractiveness of locations

You should have excellent skills in field data collection, analysis, and communication.

The start date is around 01 January 2025, but this is subject to some flexibility and negotiation.

If you are near submission or have recently submitted your PhD but have not yet had it conferred, any offers of employment will be made as Research Assistant at the top of level 5 of the University grade structure.
