About this position

This Research Fellow role sits within the Centre for Social Responsibility in Mining in the Sustainable Minerals Institute at The University of Queensland, and contributes to the ARC Training Centre for Archaeology in the Resources Sector. The appointment is designed to support applied research on the social challenges and opportunities created by resource extraction, with a strong emphasis on Indigenous cultural heritage, social performance, and community engagement.

The successful researcher will work in a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment with Traditional Owners, Indigenous communities, universities, resources companies, archaeologists, and cultural heritage experts. The position focuses on research translation that can generate both academic outputs and practical outcomes for the resources sector, including high-quality publications, knowledge products, project proposals, and funding applications.

Core activities include coordinating and delivering applied research, collecting and analysing data, conducting literature reviews, and contributing to research training. The role also involves teaching contributions through guest lectures, tutorials, and short courses, along with supervision support for Honours and Higher Degree by Research students and UQ’s PhD cohort in the ARC Training Centre.

The broader centre is a major collaboration aimed at strengthening Australia’s capability in responsible mining and cultural heritage management through interdisciplinary training and Indigenous partnership.
