The professional field of the position as Associate Professor is Sports Science with a Social Sciences Profile. The research and teaching background of the person appointed to the position must be related to this research area, including academic perspectives from sports psychology, sports pedagogy, sports sociology, and other social science disciplines, and to the strategic focus areas of the Department.

This PhD position is linked to the RESPONSE research group and its ongoing research profiles and invites studies of working life in sport and organisational aspects of sport. The professionalisation of sport in various national and international context has made sport an increasingly integral part of the labour market, with a growing presence of paid roles and commercial actors within the voluntary sector. This PhD position offers the opportunity to explore how shifts in the relationships among public, private, and voluntary actors impact working conditions and organisational practices in the sport field.
