About this position

FernUniversität in Hagen is recruiting a full-time Research Associate for the Future Center AI NRW, a project supporting small and medium-sized enterprises in North Rhine-Westphalia with the practical implementation of artificial intelligence and digitalization.

The research focuses on the future of work, AI, regional transformation, digitalization, and labor-market change. The successful candidate will analyze regional labor-market, industrial, and transformation developments; identify companies’ needs for skills, training, and support; and research regional funding, consulting, and qualification opportunities.

A central element of the role is the development and transfer of good-practice examples for introducing human-centered AI into workplaces. The position also involves networking with companies and stakeholders from labor markets, continuing education, innovation, business, science, and politics. Findings will be translated into practical recommendations and communicated to different target groups.

The role is situated in the university’s Transfer department and offers a collaborative, future-oriented working environment connected to education, regional development, and responsible technological change.
