Principal Researcher or Senior Researcher: Quality

3 weeks ago


Johannesburg, South Africa University of the Witwatersrand Full time

GCRO is seeking to appoint a flexible, multi-skilled Principal Researcher or Senior Researcher to manage its flagship Quality of Life Survey. Appointment as Principal Researcher or Senior Researcher would depend on qualifications and experience; a Principal Researcher is broadly equivalent to a university Associate Professor; and a Senior Researcher is broadly equivalent to a university Senior Lecturer. We are looking for:

- Applicants with a PhD-level qualification, or in exceptional cases a Masters with substantial experience and evidence of progress towards attaining a PhD.-
- An applicant who can continue to consolidate and develop QoL related survey and data management systems, processes and practices within GCRO.
- An applicant who can, increasingly over time, provide research leadership on quality of life and multi-dimensional well-being as a cross-disciplinary field of applied and academic research, as well as an arena of policy engagement with government. While QoL data is used across the organisation, research leadership is required to grow the data analysis and presentations skills of more junior researchers, to build international collaborations in the field of quality of life studies, and to innovate new modes by which QoL data can be transmitted to and used by government stakeholders.

If you have any further queries, please address them to: The Executive Director, GCRO, Private Bag 3, Wits 2050 or e
