Lecturer in International Food Supply Networks and Sustainability

We are looking for an enthusiastic and self-motivated environmental social scientist with a focus on sustainability and international food supply networks, to contribute to building a new cross University centre on food and the environment and to lead the development and operation of a new cross-faculty Masters programme. 

You will lead lectures and workshops across the sustainability Masters suite of programmes drawing on cutting edge theory and novel data sets from the sector.  Your research should be within a relevant subject area and should be interdisciplinary, to bridge social science, business management, international development and environmental science.

The University offers uniquely powerful commercial innovation opportunities – with internationally recognised strengths in sustainability science, food science and technology, social and health sciences, plant science and agriculture, and environmental and Earth systems research - through globally leading interdisciplinary advances.
