Stockholm

November 5, 2024

The Center for Sustainability Research (CSR), Sustainable Finance Lab (SFL) is looking for a dedicated scholar with a robust research background to join us for one year, with the possibility for extension. The ideal candidate must be comfortable working independently and collaboratively with a dynamic team. The position will be at the heart of growing research projects on the social dimensions of sustainability, with a particular focus on modern slavery as connected to migration in Europe.
The successful candidate has built a research agenda during their Ph D and is keen to develop new datasets and extend methodological and theoretical expertise. The general disciplinary background should be within the social sciences, combining macro systems and organizational level perspectives in sociology connecting to migration and business studies. The research project centers on the growing labor market exploitation of migrants in the high-income, welfare states like those in the Nordic region. The research seeks to address critical questions related to migration policies and business models, connected also to how financial market actors integrate concerns for labor market exploitation in their investments.
A background with experience in qualitative methods (case studies, interviews and observations) is essential. Sufficient knowledge of statistics to understand macrolevel data is welcome. This role is ideal for candidates who are enthusiastic about contributing to our understanding of the tensions between migration and labor market integration policies as they relate to business models and management practice. The applicants must hold a Ph D or equivalent and show an ability and aspiration to publish manuscripts in top journals. Professional proficiency in English (written and spoken) is a requirement, while proficiency in Swedish (written and spoken) is an advantage. We expect the candidate to relocate to Stockholm.
