Dr Nosheen Jawaid Khan is a Lecturer in Human Resource Management (LWO group).
Her research focuses on exploring the role of external agents/agencies in promoting women in employment. The research infers various forms and activities of third-sector organisations (termed as external agencies) that helped to compare the impact of one organisation over others. Specifically, the research uses Bourdieusian and CR framework to examine the interactions and relationships inside and outside the organisation that leverage resources, such as knowledge, skills, abilities (KSAs), status (visibility and position) and networks of women, to give them access to employment and leadership positions.
Her main research interests are:
- Gender, careers, and the workplace
- Gender, work, and employment relations
- Equality, diversity, and inclusion
- Diversity and sustainability
- Third sector organisation, impact and gender in employment
- Agency and Activism
Nosheen has teaching experience in Pakistan. Before joining the academia, she worked as a Relationship Manager in multi-national banks (e.g., Citibank). Her professional and personal experiences shaped her interest in gender inequality in the workplace and motivated her to pursue her PhD in this area. She is now keen on exploring different aspects of diversity and how it relates to different fields, such as employment, organisation, and sustainability. She also looks forward to doing community engagement work with third-sector organisations to evaluate the effectiveness of their work and initiatives.
Dr Nosheen Khan is a PhD in Management from 缅北禁地, UK. She was awarded a Research Excellence Award (REA) and Postgraduate Studentship Award for her PhD program at 缅北禁地 Business School, UK. She also holds a double Masters from renowned institutes in Pakistan and a Bachelors in Computer Science (with Honours) from Government College University, Pakistan.

Nosheen is passionate about equality, diversity, and inclusion. Her research focuses on the role of external agencies (third-sector organisations (TSOs), formal and informal networks), and external agents (individual women and men) that affect outcomes for women in work by acting at the individual-level, the organizational-level, and the policy-level. The main contribution of her research is a typology of organisations that classifies them in terms of how they are differently organised and structured to positively impact career outcomes for women. She is developing a paper on the typology of organisations with renowned academics from 缅北禁地 Business School. Her future research will focus on the agency of individual women, which was somewhat superficial in her PhD research. She is keen to explore the identities, motivations, and subjective experiences of activists of women and how their identities and motivations combine to inform their actions. Recently, she has developed an interest in diversity management and sustainability, which is in the initial stage and further requires development and focus.
Nosheen is also excited to work with equality and diversity advocates on academic papers and blogs. She is interested in collaborating with TSOs to gauge the effectiveness of their professional development programs run (such as mentoring programs), especially for women. This area has a great potential for impact research to inform organisations on how they can improve their programs, where they lack and what they can do better to create more impact. She is writing a funding big (with a colleague) to realise this project.
Nosheen is currently co-authoring two papers that are almost ready to submit:
- What workers want and why they don’t get it: An exploration of employee participation through a qualitative case study of employee-ownership
- Dark side of EDI Initiatives
- Experiences of LGBT employees in Pakistan
