Dear all
It is my great pleasure to share our call for applications for three full-time postdoc or senior researcher positions in labour geography at the University of Zurich (for 4 years). We’re looking for people excited by the possibility of doing a theoretically grounded and societally relevant research project that engages with underemployed workers in the UK, the Netherlands and Switzerland:

Thank you for sharing this info with colleagues and friends who might be interested in applying! Applications by feminist geographers are more than welcome!
