The Opportunity

The Monash Migration and Inclusion Centre (MMIC) is a leading, international research Centre. MMIC takes an interdisciplinary, evidence-based approach to understanding migration and social, economic and cultural inclusion. MMIC seeks to develop knowledge and new ways of thinking about migration and social inclusion, bringing fresh insights into current policy debates and forging new directions in high quality research. MMIC is located within the School of Social Sciences in the Faculty of Arts and constituted by academics and PhD students across the social sciences, education, law and medicine.

We are looking for a motivated and highly skilled Level B research-only academic to join our team. The successful applicant will work closely with the Centre executive staff and will be expected to carry out collaborative team-based research in the areas of migration and social, economic and cultural inclusion in one or more of the research portfolio areas that comprise MMIC (see https://arts.monash.edu/migration-and-inclusion/research-innovation).

They will have highly developed quantitative and qualitative research skills, an evidenced research track record and a reputation for research excellence. A PhD or a PhD under examination from a recognised university in a relevant discipline area (sociology, criminology, social psychology or other social science) and research experience in the areas of immigration, social cohesion, social inclusion/exclusion or similar fields is essential.

This role is a full-time position; however, flexible working arrangements may be negotiated.

At Monash University, we are committed to being a Child Safe organisation.  Some positions at the University will require the incumbent to hold a valid Working with Children Check.
