Biography

Jeanette joined Economics at Glasgow in 1987. She has held a range of posts and has degrees from the universities of Strathclyde and Bristol.

Her research and publications focus on various areas of applied microeconomics including:

skills and education
gender and work
poverty and inequality
aspects of industrial economics such as regulation and competitive tendering.

Jeanette has published widely in academic journals in these areas, as well as engaging with policymakers, trades unions and other stakeholders.

She has engaged in numerous funded consultancies from Scottish Government, local authorities, trades unions and TUC/STUC with measurable policy impact. She has a long track record of commissioned research in the financing and provision of life-line ferry services in Scotland and is currently working on further funded work in this area in cooperation with the RMT, other transport unions and with colleagues here at the University.

She also continues to work closely with colleagues at the University of Strathclyde on research projects which relate to fair work, innovation and productivity.

Jeanette is also part of a group of colleagues, at various stages of their careers, who are working on education, the labour market and, specifically, class pay gaps.

She has a strong teaching and research interest in poverty and inequality.

Jeanette is one of two REF Leads in Impact for the Adam Smith Business School and is also President of UCU Scotland, performing her TU duties during her facility time.
