Here's more about the role and what we're looking for:
The Research Associate will work with CRAIC at Loughborough University London, as well as team members and partners of the CoSTAR Foresight Lab, to lead and deliver a robust programme of research focused on the adoption of convergent technologies and their impact on the screen and performance sectors. The post holder will work closely with the Foresight Lab's policy team to deliver reports and events relating, but not limited to, international markets, skills and workforce, and creative technologies of the future.

Alongside the other labs, the CoSTAR Foresight Lab will deliver a robust programme to address the acknowledged gaps in understanding how creative businesses are deploying these advanced creative media technologies and the impacts of these deployments.
