Research Biography

 
 
 
 

I am an Associate Professor (Full Academic Status) at the College of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (CHASS), which I joined from the Australian Industrial Transformation Institute (AITI), College of Business, Government and Law, in early 2025.  Before joiniung AITI in June 2020, I was at the South Australian Centre for Economic Studies, University of Adelaide, where I remain a Research Associate. Between 2012 and 2016, I was a Senior Research Fellow at the National Institute of Labour Studies, Flinders University, which I had joined from the National Institute of Economic and Social Research in London, where I continued to hold a Visiting Research Fellow, later Senior Economist position until 2019.  

My career started as a Research Officer at the Northern Ireland Economic Research Centre in Belfast in 1990, before moving to the Centre for Research in Social Policy at Loughborough University (UK) in 1996, where I was Assitant Director from 2001 to 2003. Between 2004 and 2011, I was Research Director at the National Centre for Social Research in London, appointed a Visiting Research Associate at the UK Commission of Employment and Skills from October 2010 to March 2012, a Research Theme Director and member of the Senior Management Team of the Centre for Understanding Behaviour Change at the University of Bristol (UK) 2010-2014.  I am currently a Research Affiliate at the Life Course Centre, University of Queensland.

Research Expertise

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

My research has covered welfare activation, including the meta-analysis of welfare-to-work programs in the US and reform programs targeting lone parents and people with disability in the UK. Besides welfare policy, I have studied the sociology of risk, conducting studies examining the validity of Giddens's and Beck's theories, with a focus on young people and generational change. 

My empirical work has extended into disability (including the evaluation of Australia's National Disability Insurance Scheme, and NDIS workforce needs assessments) and ageing, where I have focussed on human resource and workplace policies for extended working lives. I have conducted research for practitioners on social enterprise, procurement and social value, and explored housing preferences of older renters in Australia as part of an AHURI research network. 

In 2024, I published an edited volume on "The Future of Work and Technology in Australia".  I continue to explore future of work issues, including the impact of emerging technologies on workplace health and safety.

Research Interests

 

Current research interests focus on aspects of the future of work, including ethical implications of the use of artificial intelligence in the workplaces, and trends in automation and innovation.

I am interested in the macro-economic, labour market and societal changes affecting and affected by workplace digitilisation, and in PhD research proposals in those areas.
