They are looking for a researcher with experience in qualitative research to:

The successful candidate will have experience in a relevant field (e.g. business studies, management studies, economics) and have significant experience in/understanding of business transformation, change management, business strategy and sustainability.
The contract will be for 10 hours per week from mid-June until autumn with hourly pay equivalent to a Grade 7 (£16.22 / hour).
