Beskrivning av verksamheten
Nordregio - Nordic Centre for Spatial Development conducts strategic research in the broad field of regional studies, including sustainable urban and rural development. We provide policy relevant knowledge with a Nordic, European and Arctic perspective. Our main clients are policymakers and government officials at national and regional authorities in the Nordic countries, the European Union, as well as private and public stakeholder organisations. Nordregio has a multi-disciplinary international staff, and is located in the attractive surroundings of Skeppsholmen in the heart of Stockholm, Sweden. The institute was established in 1997 by the Nordic Council of Ministers, and is built on nearly 50 years of Nordic collaboration. Working at Nordregio provides you the opportunity to become part of a truly international institution. It offers significant career development potential in terms of enhancing your international network of contacts in the policy and academic fields.

Dina arbetsuppgifter
Nordregio is currently seeking to expand its base of senior level research staff. The essence of your work is combining spatial perspectives at a range of scales with regional development issues. The roles and responsibilities of the individuals hired will depend on the qualifications of individual applicants. However, a successful applicant will have extensive experience in at least one of the following fields: . Multi-level governance, i.e. studies of the formulation, coordination and implementation of policies, programmes and projects in a territorial perspective, for example in relation to maritime spatial planning, environmental change and transnational cooperation. . Quantitative analysis of demographic and land use change, socio-economic and environmental data etc involving methods such as principal component analysis and factor analysis, cluster analysis, multivariate correlation and regression analysis, linear and non-linear modelling as well as forecasting and micro-simulation. We do not expect you to cover all the above methods through in-depth theoretical expertise or experiences in practice, but it is important that you can show examples of practical application of a representative set of quantitative methods. It is also relevant to inform that we are using quantitative methods embedded in different GIS tools. . Rural development, including policy analysis, evaluation of regional programmes or structural funds, and innovation issues related to rural and sparsely populated areas, incl. social innovation and entrepreneurship. Furthermore, a broad knowledge in the field of regional development and of the Nordic and European institutional systems is expected.

Utbildning och erfarenhet
With the responsibility to initiate, attract and lead externally funded research, development and innovation projects, a Senior Research Fellow position requires experience in project development and project management. The geographic scope of your field of interest includes an expert knowledge in at least one of the Nordic countries as well as a European and/or Baltic perspective. Formally, you hold a PhD in human geography, statistics, economics, political science, sociology or an associated discipline. You have at least 4 years of relevant work experience and you are willing to share and expand your professional network with your colleagues at Nordregio.
