Maynooth, Co Kildare, Ireland Maynooth University Full time

Department: Sociology

Vacancy ID: 033961

Closing Date: 06-Apr-2025

Maynooth University is committed to a strategy in which the primary University goals of excellent research and scholarship and outstanding education are interlinked and equally valued.

We are seeking a Research Assistant with experience of qualitative social science, to support the research for the "LINLOSS" project, funded through an ERC award to Professor Jane Gray. LINLOSS will collect a large body of data in Ireland and Poland, including unstructured life narratives, structured life histories, support genealogies and neighbourhood maps. The Research Assistant will support the principal investigator and all members of the research team to meet the overall aims and objectives of the project. They will assist with managing all stages of the project data lifecycle, including the ingestion of project data to a trusted digital repository.

The research assistant will also assist with the organization of workshops, conferences and other public events, and with the dissemination of project research and outputs. As a core member of the research team, they will contribute to presentations at national and international conferences, and to scholarly publications arising from the project.

Overview Of The LINLOSS Project

LINLOSS aims to understand how losses, disposals and dead-ends shape the direction of social change at moments of rupture, and to develop a formal theory of social loss. It will develop new explanations of how loss generates change at multiple, intersecting societal scales: in the transformation of cultural and institutional patterns across generations; within changing relationships across genealogies and social networks; and in the reconstruction of pasts and futures within biographies.

The research will be a comparative, cross-national community study conducted in Ireland and Poland. The main form of data collection will be mixed biographical interviews, combining unstructured and formal elements, connected within genealogical support networks. The data analysis will take place across two iterations: a comparative analysis to trace the effects of breaks and losses at multiple societal scales; and a thematic analysis to identify how instances of loss are tied together by a common social pattern.

Salary
Research Assistant Level 2 (2024): €36,796 – €39,188 p.a. (4 points - with increment)

Appointments will be made in accordance with public sector pay provisions.
