Description
Working at Durham University A globally outstanding centre of teaching and research excellence, a warm and friendly place to work, a unique and historic setting – Durham is a university like no other. As one of the UK’s leading universities, Durham is an incredible place to define your career. The University is located within a beautiful historic city, home to a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and surrounded by stunning countryside. Our talented scholars and researchers from around the world are tackling global issues and making a difference to people's lives. We believe that inspiring our people to do outstanding things at Durham enables Durham people to do outstanding things in the world. Being a part of Durham is about more than just the success of the University, it’s also about contributing to the success of the city, county and community. Our University Strategy is built on three pillars of research, education and wider student experience, but also on our keen sense of community and of inspiring others to achieve their potential. The Role and Project Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Associate (PDRA) in Space Security. This position is made possible by an EPSRC NESCA funded project: ‘Geopolitical Analysis and Space Domain Awareness (SDA)’. The post-holder will conduct research with the Space Research Centre (SPARC) at Durham University, in partnership with 3S Northumbria (3SN), on space security and the geopolitical dimensions of Space Domain Awareness (SDA) as well as deliver co-developed publications and knowledge dissemination events. The project is led by Dr Bleddyn Bowen at the Space Research Centre (SPARC, Durham University) and is delivered in partnership with an Alnwick/Newcastle-based SDA company, 3S Northumbria (3SN). This project seeks to build bridges between quantitative technical orbital tracking work and qualitative geopolitical/security policy net assessments to address gaps in technical and non-technical SDA capabilities, and how to address permanent uncertainty in SDA analysis. Candidates with a background in space security and technology are particularly desirable for the role. Candidates with a record in interdisciplinary research at the cross-section of technology and security/policy will also be highly desirable for the role. Exceptional candidates without an explicit background in space security but with a background in security/intelligence/geopolitical research, an interest in their technological dimensions, and the potential to quickly develop space expertise as part of the role may be considered for the role. The post-holder will need to address intent and uncertainty issues in SDA using political, strategic, and/or intelligence studies analysis methods and knowledge, and show a track record or interest in the technical dimensions of SDA or space sustainability. The post-holder will be expected to conduct research in cooperation with Dr Bleddyn Bowen at SPARC and Mr Ralph Dinsley and the 3S Northumbria team as required to develop at least 1 published article, 1 policy white paper, and other, smaller items of writing such as Policy Briefs. The post-holder will also be expected to support the organisation and facilitation of a high-level dissemination workshop hosted by SPARC and 3SN at the end of the project. The post-holder must have English proficiency, qualifications in International Security/Intelligence Studies or closely related fields and preferably have an interest if not experience in relevant technical fields or space technologies/systems. There will be a modest budget available for local travel between Durham, Newcastle, and Alnwick for the post-holder to facilitate cooperation between the SPARC and 3SN. The post-holder will be supported in academic and professional mentoring with Dr Bleddyn Bowen for the duration of the appointment. The post-holder will be expected to attend various meetings and project workshops in-person at the Durham University campus, and the 3SN offices in Newcastle and/or Alnwick, as appropriate. Responsibilities: • To organise, and engage in, high-quality collaborative and individually-driven research, as well as desk research, in service of the project aims and under the general direction of the Principal Investigator (Dr Bleddyn Bowen). • To report on progress and any arising challenges on a regular, mutually agreed schedule to the Principal Investigator. • To contribute to and publish the research and writing of high-quality research outputs for academic and non-academic audiences, particularly as a co-author. • To engage with the Project Partner (3SN) on a continuous basis for project development, research, review, and dissemination. • To plan and manage own research activity and research resources in collaboration with others and contribute to planning as part of the research project. • To understand and convey material of a specialist or highly technical nature to the team or external practitioner audiences through presentations, workshops, and discussions. • To work with the Principal Investigator and other colleagues in SPARC and 3S Northumbria, as appropriate, to identify areas for research, develop new research methods and extend the research portfolio. • To deal with problems that may affect the achievement of research objectives and deadlines by discussing with the Principal Investigator and Project Partner and offering creative or innovative solutions. • To engage in wider citizenship in the process enhancing career development (e.g. Project Workshop organisation, public outreach, participation in SPARC meetings and projects as appropriate). • To contribute to fostering a collegial and respectful working environment which is inclusive and welcoming and where everyone is treated fairly with dignity and respect. • To engage in continuing professional development by participation by attending relevant training and development courses. This post is fixed term for 12 months as the funding is linked to the EPSRC/NESCA project. The post-holder is employed to work on the NESCA research project. Whilst this means that the post-holder will not be carrying out a fully independent research agenda, the expectation is that they will contribute to the advancement of the project through their own initiative and the development of their own research ideas/adaptation and co-authoring of research outputs within the general project goals and the requirements set out by the Principal Investigator. Successful applicants will ideally be in post by 1st May 2026. This post is fixed term for one year from 1 May 2026 to 30 April 2027 to align with the terms and conditions of the Research Grant. The post-holder is employed to work on research/a research project which will be led by another colleague. Whilst this means that the post-holder will not be carrying out independent research in his/her own right, the expectation is that they will contribute to the advancement of the project, through the development of their own research ideas/adaptation and development of research protocols. Our Purpose and Values We want our University to be a place where people can be free to be themselves, no matter what their identity or background.
