The University of Glasgow has been changing the world for more than 570 years, and today we are one of the world's top 100 universities. We are delighted to have recently been awarded Scottish University of the Year by the Times & Sunday Times Good University Guide 2024. Our people have always been at the forefront of innovation, and our past achievements inspire our current world changers.

The School of Humanities are seeking to appoint a Geospatial Technician (Archaeology) to manage archaeological, geoarchaeological, palaeoecological, earth science, environmental geo-spatial technical aspects to the UKRI- funded project, ‘Rapid Engagement with Stressed Peatland Environments and Communities in Transformation (RESPECT)’, working in a trans-disciplinary environment to accelerate the UKs trajectory towards net-zero.

The post-holder will work closely with Prof Nicki Whitehouse, Archaeology, Dr Adrian Bass, Earth Sciences, Dr Jiren Xu, Environmental Sciences, alongside other work package contributors at the University of Glasgow, University of Hull, University of Stirling, and the project PI, Prof Jill Robbie, Law. This technical role will involve collaborative working across an interdisciplinary team of academics and a variety of external stakeholders. These activities will be part of the appointee’s tasks, alongside the primary technical focus of the role.
