Research Fellow Exploring Social Marketing Solutions in Obtaining Compliance with 20 MPH Limits

(0.5FTE)

Ref:  R/13519

Salary will be £14,986 - pro rata to £29,972

We are currently seeking to appoint a part time Research Fellow on a 9 month fixed term contract.

The successful applicant's main task  will be to undertake participant observation work in two Bristol pilot areas (South Bristol and East Bristol) to explore the best uses of social marketing techniques in gaining community support for the 20 mph limits. You would make contact with community leaders and active citizens and work with them on projects and activities, thus making a contribution to the campaigning itself. However, your focus would be on observation (backed up with other forms of data gathering (such as unstructured and semi-structured depth interviews) to build up case study evidence that would feed into a model of best practice. The work would also require some assessment of the acceptability or otherwise of 20mph across other residential areas in the city. This model, in turn, will feed into a strategic guide of soft measures that we believe would be critical for the successful roll out of the 20 mph limit.

For further details and to apply online visit our website www.uwe.ac.uk/jobs or telephone 0117 32 82216 to request documents by post. 

Closing date:  27 April 2011.
