LSE Department of Geography and Environment, Research Assistant (“Pre-Doc”) – Green public finance, Crowding in, and Local growth

Salary from £36,513 to £41,565 pa inclusive with potential to progress to £44,468 pa inclusive of London allowance pro rata

Funding is available to support this position for 12 months

The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) is committed to building a diverse, equitable and truly inclusive university.

We are seeking a full-time Research Assistant (“pre-doc”) to work closely with Professor Neil Lee on a new funded research project examining whether public green lending crowds in private capital and generates local economic growth. The project uses data on investments made by development banks to build a novel panel dataset spanning 20 years of climate-relevant finance across European regions. This role is ideal for candidates planning to apply to top PhD programmes and looking for hands-on research experience with original data construction and applied causal inference on high-impact questions in green finance and regional development.

The closing date for receipt of applications is 12 July 2026 (23.59 UK time). Regrettably, we are unable to accept any late applications.
