In this role I am campaigning for, and influencing, policy and practice on employment of those over fifty. This includes monitoring the labour market for older people, researching factors leading to their increased economic inactivity, barriers to their employment, age-friendly employment practices such as flexible working, and pay and benefits in work. Making evidence-based cases for change to government and other stakeholders is crucial to the success of the work of the Centre.

Alongside this role, I am working toward publishing two more articles based on my PhD research (I have published one already) and looking to pursue further related research.
