LSE’s research is top-ranked, and we like to reflect this status in our benefits package, which includes support for relocation, a competitive salary and generous leave.
We’re demonstrably committed to providing a good working environment for our researchers. Read on to find out why LSE might be the right place for you.
Why we’re different
To promote research excellence, LSE is committed to providing the right support for its research staff. Our efforts to improve the working conditions and career development opportunities of our researchers led to us receiving the ‘HR excellence in research’ badge from the EC in 2010. We were one of only a few UK HEIs to do so.
At LSE there is a Research Staff Committee, and a Research Division that offers advice and assistance to our academic community in respect of all areas of funded research activity.
Like other staff groups, researchers are eligible for the following benefits:
-
A competitive salary
-
Generous pension arrangements

Relocation packages
-
Career development and use of mentors

Good working hours and flexible working
