Dear Till,

I hope this email finds you well. Many thanks again for organising the workshop last week – I and my colleagues from the FCA found it incredibly interesting and useful for our work.

I wanted to make you aware of a job we’re currently recruiting for within the Behavioural Economics & Design Unit (BDU), which may be relevant for any recent/ soon-to-be completing PhD candidates in behavioural/ experimental economics (or similar) at Stirling (or elsewhere).

We’re currently hiring for a full time, permanent, Lab Manager role, for someone to oversee the teams’ in-house experiment capabilities. This role is broader than typical academic ‘lab manager’ roles. While it would predominantly involve designing and coding experiments as well as managing the lab, the candidate would have the opportunity to develop wider stakeholder engagement skills as a member of the BDU team.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to develop their experimental design and coding skills while gaining valuable experience conducting online and field experiments within the heart of a regulator. Because of this we think it could be a great role for a recent behavioural/ experimental economics (or similar) PhD candidate looking to get applied experience and develop wider stakeholder skills. We typically use oTree and Qualtrics for our online experiments but experience with these specific platforms is not required.

It would be great if you could share this opportunity with anyone you think would be interested. I would also be more than happy to have an informal conversation with anyone who might be interested if they wish to reach out.

The role profile can be found here: Lab manager (senior associate) position<https://fca.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/FCA_Careers/details/Behavioural-Insights-Lab-Manager_JR0012918-1>. The advert closes on November 7th, and the initial application process just requires submission of a CV.

Best wishes,
Cameron
