What do research staff do next?
Project outcomes include:
'What do research staff do next? 2016' report 
This project has developed a better understanding of the careers of research staff who move into occupations beyond academic research, and their reflections on the transition process and current career paths.
We have some knowledge of the first few years of researchers’ career paths after their doctoral degree through Vitae's 'What do researchers do?' series, but very little is known about subsequent career stages, particularly for those who were initially employed as researchers in higher education. The project examined how and why early career researchers who were employed in postdoctoral positions leave higher education and enter other occupations.
