The University Strategic Plan (2014-2020) sets an ambitious target to grow research funding by 50% to £200m per annum by 2020. The Director of Research and Innovation Development plays a key role in leading a team within the University to support this agenda.

You will have substantial experience as a PA to senior management and possess excellent organisational and communication skills.
