Offer Description


Your research in our Law School and University will contribute to strategically important research objectives as part of the (CSDLP) internationally leading JusTN0W initiative ('Just Transitions to a Net Zero World'). The CSDLP was founded in 2022 and operates as a research centre at the University level, with around 50 members from different disciplines.


Professors / Associate Professors at Durham


This position offers the candidate the opportunity to focus on research and grant income generation. All Professors and Associate Professors are encouraged to focus on quality and innovation throughout your research and educational activity. But we'll also look to you to provide genuine leadership and citizenship - not just in your field, but across the University environment, and in the way your department functions administratively.


Academic colleagues are expected to pursue research that is world leading and world changing, in terms of originality, significance and rigour, and deliver teaching that is research-led. We will support your ambitions to publish internationally significant research and provide resources to enable you to attend conferences and to fund research activity.


For this specific post, the teaching will be significantly reduced for the first four years (possibly beyond depending on external funding successes), to allow for extra grant capture and research activities. Applicants are expected to provide leadership in securing external funding and to support the activities of the JusTN0W team. It will be expected that the candidate has demonstrable experience in grant capture, project management and successful bid writing. The candidate should have a well-established international network in academia and beyond, which can be used to develop pathways to impact. It is important for the success of JusTN0W that the team grows and works together towards achieving the objectives of the project.


Applicants must demonstrate research excellence in the field of international law with an interest in sustainability, climate change, and the transition to net zero, with the ability to take a leading role in both, the development of JusTN0W and Durham's academic community. Applicants must have demonstrable experience with or demonstrate the capacity to undertake REF Impact case studies.


Short-listed candidates will be invited to the University, either virtually or in-person and will have the opportunity to meet key members of the Department. The assessment for the post will normally include a presentation to staff and students in the Department followed by an interview and we anticipate that the assessments and interviews will take place over two days in July 2025, with a preferred starting date in autumn 2025 for the new post.


In the event that you are unable to attend in person on the date offered, it may not be possible to offer you an interview on an alternative date.
