Research Assistant Position - Italian Constitutional and Administrative Law - REPGOV project (ERC,...

The Institut Barcelona d’Estudis Internacionals (IBEI) invites applications for one (1) Research Assistant position to work in the research project Representative Government Through Democratic Governance (REPGOV) , funded by the European Research Council (ERC). REPGOV studies the relationship between public administration and democratic values.

We are seeking candidates at the post-graduate/pre-doctoral level with a solid background in Italian constitutional and administrative law to begin as soon as possible. The research assistant will contribute to our understanding of democratic and administrative values from constitutional and secondary sources.

Strong academic and/or professional experience in Italian administrative and constitutional law is essential. Candidates must also have excellent research and analytical skills and be able to contribute to collaborative research projects. In-depth knowledge of Italian legal architecture is required. In addition, fluency in English is essential, both orally and written.

The internship requires 20 hours/week for 1 month (extendable if needed) of work that can be arranged full- or part-time as well as fully or partially remotely. The successful candidate does not need to be based in Barcelona. The monetary stipend is commensurate with that for similar positions at IBEI.

Applications must be submitted by June 20, 2022.

The application should be saved as a PDF (one single document) and sent to: [email protected]  (Alba Solà Garcia, Project Manager, REPGOV).

Applications should include:

• A motivation letter (1 page).
• Current CV including the names of two referees from law faculty members.
