The Center for Psychosocial Organization Studies is seeking a Doctoral Research Associate for a one-year, renewable, part-time position. This is an unpaid but flexible opportunity for doctoral students, and clinical and academic psychoanalytic candidates who want to deepen their engagement with psychosocial perspectives on organizations, work, and society. Doctoral Research Associates will gain experience in research, grant writing, fundraising, and communications, while also participating in Center reading groups, seminars, and mentoring opportunities. Benefits include free membership, listing on the website, mentorship with a research associate or board member, publication and presentation opportunities, and networking with an international scholarly community.
The role is designed to complement doctoral study and professional commitments. While unpaid, it has the potential to evolve into a funded position as CPOS expands its grant writing and fundraising initiatives. We welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds, especially those historically underrepresented in academia, psychoanalysis, healthcare, and business.
Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. To apply, please send a cover letter, CV, and names of two references (letters not required) as a single PDF to: Mindy Duncan, surfacingtheorg@gmail.com.
