Academic Expert Network
Alcuin offers academics a low-friction way to engage with real-world questions that intersect with their research, without compromising independence or academic integrity. Our model is designed to respect your time, autonomy, and institutional obligations, allowing you to participate selectively in short, well-defined expert interactions. You gain exposure to how organisations think about complex challenges, contribute research-informed perspectives, and do so on clear, transparent terms - without long-term commitments, exclusivity, or consulting-style deliverables.
To register your interest in the Alcuin Academics network, complete the short registration form below. We review all profiles to ensure appropriate alignment and will contact you if a relevant opportunity arises.

Onboarding Process
We will reach out to you based on the industry demand for your expertise. Academics from reputable institutions may also register their interest using the form below.
We seek to understand your expertise in the context of industry by reviewing your CV and your research, allowing us to match you with the right clients.
Upon signing the Academic Framework Agreement, you will then be eligible to receive tailored opportunities. You remain independent and should maintain alignment with university commitments and terms.
Interactions draw exclusively on your existing research and specialist knowledge; no additional preparation is required. Participation is entirely on your terms. You maintain full autonomy to accept or decline any opportunity based on your schedule and interests.
Remuneration is agreed in advance for each engagement, based on the format, duration and nature of the interaction and your academic and professional experience. Alcuin manages all contracting and invoicing, providing industry-leading rates for your time. Participation does not create an employment relationship.
