Fixed-term Researcher - Biomechanics Video Data Collection

For this industry funded project fixed term until 31st January 2027, you will be responsible for organising and coordinating the collection of high-quality, synchronous, multi-camera video data across multiple exclusive real-world environments (capture volumes). Each capture volume requires a minimum of 16 cameras, and you will collect multiple participants completing a variety of activities of daily living (e.g., walk, jog, run, jump, hop, skip).

You will work with Dr’s Rich Foster and Karl Gibbon to collect, process, and share the data that is collected with our industry partners. You will also contribute to research that aligns with the Biomechanics Research Group within the Research Institute.

In return, we offer an excellent benefits package including generous annual leave entitlement, pension scheme, induction and development support as well as family-friendly policies.

This is an exciting time to join the university as we deliver the LJMU Strategy 2030 and its vision of LJMU as an inclusive civic university transforming lives and futures, by placing students at the heart of everything we do.
