Can men be the key to advancing gender equality in the workplace? And how do male managers and senior colleagues influence the work-life balance decisions of new fathers? Join the Sociology Department at the Faculty of Social Sciences as a post-doc and explore these questions by analyzing extensive CBS register data
Contemporary fathers want to spend more time with their children but they take up less parental leave and work less part-time than mothers. Why? It seems organisations play an important role in this. Specifically, men seem to experience a lack of role models and support from managers and senior colleagues in their organisation. Together with the principal investigator in this project, you will study whether fathers take up more parental leave or are more likely to work part-time if role models ꟷ male managers and senior colleagues who take parental leave or reduce their working hours after the birth of their child(ren) ꟷ become available in the organization. To study this question, you will (a) combine multiple sources of Statistics Netherlands data to construct a panel dataset including all Dutch SMEs and analyse it using advanced statistical techniques and (b) write a paper on fathers as organisational role models in cooperation with the principal investigator.
This position will be embedded in the Sociology Department at the Faculty of Social Sciences.
Profile
You should have a PhD degree in Sociology or in an associated field (e.g. economics, statistics) (Postdoc) or a finished Research Master’s degree in Sociology or in an associated social science field (Researcher).
You are familiar with advanced quantitative research methods and statistical techniques (e.g. multilevel regression analyses, linear probability models).
You have shown academic excellence as evidenced by publications or course work.
An understanding of the Dutch language is a plus.
We are
The Sociology Department has extensive knowledge on gender inequality in organisations and experience with analysing big data. You will conduct research in a larger project team (funded by the Dutch Research Council) and in an environment with in-depth theoretical and methodological expertise.

It is possible to discuss options for teaching, depending on your qualifications. Additionally, if you would like to change the number of FTEs, that will also be negotiable.
