[Konsortswd-coo] Re: KonsortSWD Flexfunds call

Dear Deborah, we need to know in the application how funding should be spread across the duration. No flexibility there, sorry. Best, Bernhard Von: Wiltshire, Deborah &lt;Deborah.Wiltshire(a)gesis.org&gt; Gesendet: Freitag, 27. Februar 2026 09:34 An: Miller, Bernhard &lt;Bernhard.Miller(a)gesis.org&gt; Betreff: KonsortSWD Flexfunds call Good morning Bernhard, Hope you enjoyed the rest of IDCC. I had a quick question about the Flexfunds<https://www.konsortswd.de/wp-content/uploads/en.Call_Flexfunds_2027.pdf> call and I'm hoping you would know the answer. We see that although it's enough to fund a 1 year full-time position, there is the option to have this as a part-time post over 18-24 months. Our question is, do we have to specify whether this would be a full-time or part-time position in the funding proposal or could we decide this in the recruitment to take into account the preference of the candidate? Many thanks, Deborah Deborah Wiltshire Head of Secure Data Center Data Services for the Social Sciences [Ein Bild, das Schrift, Grafiken, Text, Logo enthält.
