Four postdoctoral research positions in Barcelona (UAB)

Applications are invited for four postdoctoral research positions to work on a 5-year project ‘Who Counts? Incorporating a ‘missing minority’ to re-examine the profile, drivers and depth of poverty across Europe’. Funded by the European Research Council, WHOCOUNTS aims to improve understanding of the nature and prevalence of poverty across Europe. The successful candidates will work in close collaboration with the project team to develop and deploy new datasets on a non-trivial minority of the European population that are currently missing from income surveys used to construct official poverty statistics.


The successful postholders will be based at the Autonomous University of Barcelona in Spain. They will benefit from an excellent research environment and additional financial support to attend conferences and external meetings. A dedicated training budget is also available to support the professional development of postholders. For further information about the roles and details of how to apply please visit:
