    Beschrijving

    RAND is an independent not-for-profit research institute, whose mission is to help improve public policy- and decision-making through objective research and analysis. Part of the RAND Corporation, RAND Europe has over 30 years of experience in conducting client-funded policy research for governments, international organisations, research councils, charitable foundations, and other organisations. Our mission is to help improve public policy and decision making through evidence-based research and analysis. RAND Europe has offices in Cambridge, Brussels, and the Netherlands, and employs approximately 170 staff: just over half of our research staff have doctorates with the balance holding other post-graduate degrees.

    The Home Affairs and Social Policy Research Group undertakes contract research and analysis in a range of public policy areas: education (including early childhood education and care, school effectiveness); employment and social policy (including skills, employability, migration, gender equality, child, and family policy); crime and justice (including responses to offending, international law enforcement cooperation, organised crime and illicit markets). Our recent work in the Netherlands includes studies for the House of Representatives, the Research and Documentation Centre (WODC), the Ministry of Justice and Security, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the National Coordinator for Counterterrorism and Security and various charitable foundations. We collaborate widely with like-minded academic and other organisations across Europe and with colleagues based in RAND's U.S. offices. We employ robust methods and offer multi-disciplinary perspectives.

    Due to a growing portfolio of research projects with Dutch clients, RAND Europe has recently established an office in the Netherlands. As part of its strategy to grow our work in the Netherlands, RAND Europe is looking for an experienced researcher and project leader with a research background in organised crime, illicit markets, criminal justice, policing, discrimination, migration and/or related fields.
