[Commlist] 3-year research associate on screen/creative industries, University of York, UK

We have a three-year research associate post available at the University 
of York to work on a new project which seeks to develop the screen and 
related industries in Yorkshire. Please circulate to anyone you think 
may be interested.

Creative Media Research and Knowledge Exchange Hub (Creat:KE), is an 
exciting new 3-year research project led by the University of York. The 
aim is to enhance Yorkshire and the Humber’s screen-related industries 
(film, television, games, XR and other digital media) through a 
collaborative industry and higher education partnership focusing on 
diversity and inclusion; knowledge exchange; skills and training; and 
research about the development of the creative industries.

The role of the Research Associate will be to undertake research which: 
supports the needs of the region’s screen-related industries; enhances 
Creat:KE’s commitment to diversity and inclusion, knowledge exchange and 
skills development; and advances our understanding of the creative 
industries. This will be achieved by undertaking primary and secondary 
research, synthesising existing scholarship, identifying best practice 
and working with partner universities to identify research needs. You 
will support the delivery of research commissioning activity including 
theme identification, funding call design and evaluation of research 
proposals.

You will also undertake the writing up of research results and 
dissemination through publications, seminar and conference presentations 
and public engagement and outreach activities

A critical understanding of the creative industries will be key in this 
role and the post would suit someone with a background in business and 
management studies, human geography, sociology, film and TV studies, or 
similar disciplines.
