Working at the University

Bristol is different

Professional support, career development, involvement and information - this is what we aim to give all our researchers. It's one reason why Bristol has been singled out as the UK's best employer of researchers.

A number of universities have built some very good practice in this area…Notable examples include Bristol, which has developed an holistic approach to support and training for research staff

The University has an active and progressive programme of initiatives to support researchers at all levels and is committed to continuing this in the long term.
