Role descriptors and guides for champions

University of Edinburgh Postdoc Champion role descriptor

The Postdoc Champion is responsible for supporting and encouraging postdocs to connect with School and wider University initiatives, access relevant support and engage in opportunities relevant to career and professional development.  This descriptor is the outline of the role, Schools will often apply this role to their own local structures and support, adapting as necessary. 

Research Staff Champion role descriptor (CMVM)

After consultation with research staff societies, and existing staff who already hold roles like this in the College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine (CMVM), the College has taken the Postdoc Champion role descriptor and created a tailored version that best suits local arrangements.

PDRA Champion guide (CSE)

The College of Science and Engineering has developed a guide, assembled by PDRA Champions for PDRA Champions, providing practical guidance for Champions, with key resources, relevant contact information and other support information.
