Biography

Professor in the Sociology of Work and Technology in the Business Management Department.

 

I have been working in Aberdeen Since January 2019. Prior to this I worked in the School of Business and Economics at Loughborough University (2007-2018).

 

In broad terms I am interested in the relationship between technology and work and how worker's use of new technologies shapes the character of their work. Currently this is focussed on three particular areas. Firstly, I have an interest in how artificial intelligence and robots are shaping managerial, professional and service work. Secondly, I am doing research on worker's diverse experience of hybrid working. Finally, I have an interest in the work-related use of mobile communication technologies, particularly with respect to business travel. 

External Memberships

I am a former editor for the journal Work, Employment and Society, and served a 4 year terms of office, which concluded in late 2024.

 

I am on the editorial board of the journals: Human Relations, and New Technology, Work and Employment.

I have been an external examiner at a range of UK universities including: Nottingham Trent University, Warwick Business School, Leeds University Business School, Essex University Business School, Queen Mary Business School University of London, Durham University Business School
