Governance of climate and energy transformation is one of CET's core competence areas, and we are now looking for a postdoctoral fellow in a three year position to develop our research in this area:

The postdoctoral fellow will be expected to take a leading role in initiating research activities, such as proposals, seminars and publications that provide opportunities for other researchers in the group, particularly PhD candidates.
