Biography
I came to Essex University in 1991 having previously taught at Brunel, Leicester and South Bank universities in the UK. I have also held research fellowships in the UK (the Ginsberg Research Fellowship at the LSE and the Hallsworth Senior Research Fellowship at the University of Manchester) and abroad (in 1998 at the Research School of Social Sciences at Australian National University in Canberra and at the Swedish Collegium for Advanced Study in the Social Sciences in Uppsala). I was Head of the Sociology Department here at Essex between 1999 and 2001. From 2004 to 2006, I was funded by an ESRC Professorial Fellowship to undertake a 3 year program of research in- Transformations of Work: New Frontiers, Shifting Boundaries, Changing Temporalities (see http://cresi.essex.ac.uk/getproject?projectID=40;) and I am currently writing a book based on this research. In 2005 I was elected a Fellow of the British Academy, and was awarded the 'Kerstin Hesselgren' Visiting Professorship for 2007 by the Swedish Research Council, hosted by the Economic History Department of Stockholm University. I am currently funded (2010 - 2013) by a European Research Council Advanced Investigator Grant to undertake a programme of research on 'Consumption Work and Societal Divisions of Labour'.
