Crynodeb
This role will be based on the university campus with scope for it to be undertaken in a hybrid manner. We are also open to discussing flexible working arrangements.
Do you want to be part of an exciting team project? Do you want to empower scientists to do cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research? Are you passionate about project management, positive research culture, science communication and EDI?
The project officer will be responsible for project coordinating and overseeing the day-to-day running of the programme as well as its future development, including coordinating collaborative working, and helping with future funding applications. For example, this will include (i) organising meetings/reporting and facilitating research; (ii) co-ordinating external advocacy (e.g. with the advisory board) and public engagement activities; (iii) ensuring effective utilisation of resources, budget updates and that data storage systems are in place.
This position is ideally suited to a highly organised and motivated individual with a background in the biomedical sciences who wishes to develop their career in research programme management. Given that the project involves close collaboration between academics at 3 universities, a scientific advisory board and ~16 researchers, the post holder must have excellent interpersonal and communication skills and a comprehensive understanding of issues relating to carrying out collaborative research. You should have a degree level qualification in science, engineering, business or project management. You should also have a track record in the management of similar academic projects, with demonstrable project management skills, including strong analytical, creative and problem-solving skills.
We are passionate about fostering a supportive, responsible, and inclusive research culture. Equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) are central to how the team operates, and the team will play active roles in EDI activities across the 3 universities. Development opportunities for a range of career avenues (e.g. CV writing workshops, presentation training, meet industrial representatives) will be available. Mentoring will be provided and tailored to your career goals.
