LiLaC is one of eight leading academic centres with excellence in applied public health research which make up the NIHR School for Public Health Research (NIHR SPHR). LiLaC is The Liverpool and Lancaster Universities Collaboration for Public Health Research. It was founded by Professor Jennie Popay and Professor Dame Margaret Whitehead in 2012. LiLaC’s mission is to produce evidence on how to tackle inequalities in health through action on the upstream causes of inequalities – these are the conditions in which we live or work and where children grow up or people grow old. This position will be responsible to Professor Bruce Hollingsworth, working as part of the Efficiency and Equity theme.

The position is 0.5 fte available from 1st January 2021 and we are open to discussing flexible working arrangements including working week and days/hours worked, flexible start and finish times or condensed hours.
You will join us on an indefinite contract however the roles remain contingent on external funding which at this time is due to come to an end on 31st January 2022.
