The Centre for Energy Ethics is looking for talented researchers wanting to develop their research careers as UKRI Future Leaders Fellows. The Future Leaders Fellowships are personal awards to support fellows to develop as impactful and influential research or innovation leaders. FLFs are open across UKRI’s disciplinary remit and can last for up to four years, with the option to apply to renew for a further three years.
UKRI has announced round 11 of its Future Leaders Fellowships (FLF) funding opportunity, offering funding to early career researchers who are seeking to establish their own research agenda or transition toward independent leadership in their field. More information on eligibility can be found in the round 10 call document. Round 11 guidance will be available when the full call opens on 2 February 2026; we are not aware of any changes planned regarding candidate eligibility.
To apply for a Future Leaders Fellowship, you must first secure the support from your preferred host institution where you intend to base your fellowship. UKRI restricts the number of applications that a host organisation can submit. Therefore, we will conduct a selection process to identify up to four candidates who will develop and submit high-quality fellowship applications to UKRI.
Please complete the expression of interest form by 31 Jan to be considered. Please direct any questions to our Grant Writer Gwen Joubert ([email protected]).
