The Economic and Social Research Council is recruiting new members for three new policy committees and assessment panels from the 1st April 2010:

ESRC Committee and Panel Appointments

From the vacancy specification:

The panels will consider applications for all responsive mode schemes across the range of ESRC’s activities including research, people & skills, knowledge transfer and research methods & infrastructure. This is an opportunity to work with other experienced people from across the academic, public, private and third sectors to help ensure ESRC funds high quality research at the forefront of social and economic science whilst working to maximise the impact of the research it supports. They will also have an opportunity to feed into, and learn about policy development and spreading best practice through links with the Policy Committees and the GDG (Grants Development Group).
