Understanding consumer perception of nutrition and wellbeing messaging aligned to dairy products
Main Supervisor: Professor Joanne Hort, Director of FEAST and Principal Investigator in the Riddet Institute, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand
The postdoctoral fellow will form part of a multidisciplinary team with expertise in understanding consumer engagement with dairy. The researcher will join the Food Experience and Sensory Testing lab at Massey and will be based in the Riddet Institute in Palmerston North, Massey University, New Zealand with some fieldwork overseas.
Key markets for New Zealand dairy products are China and potentially the US. The project aims to develop an understanding of current consumer perception of the contribution of dairy products to nutrition and wellness and the types of messaging that conveys this information in a way the consumer understands. Taking this as a base the researcher will then be involved in developing appropriate nutritional and wellness messaging for the new findings from research, including clinical studies, involved in the wider NZM3 programme.
The researcher will hold a PhD in Consumer Behaviour, a Psychology speciality appropriate to the project, Health Promotion or any other discipline relevant to this project and demonstrate past experience in qualitative and quantitative research with human participants. They will have excellent English language capability and communication skills as working with human participants and integrating with other researchers will be a key part of the role. Past experience in nutrition or health promotion is desirable but not essential.
