Faculty of Health Sciences Research Manager (HS0174R)

This is an exciting opportunity to join the new Faculty of Health Sciences as our first Research Manager.

The Faculty was formed in 2017 and consists of three schools: Life Sciences, Health and Social Work and the Hull-based elements of the Hull York Medical School (a partnership with the University of York). We are a new and ambitious organisation and our research interests span biomedical, applied health, clinical specialities and health technology. The Faculty has recently established an Institute for Clinical and Applied Health Research, accompanied by a major investment in academic and clinical academic staff, the establishment of strong methods and research support infrastructure and completion and occupation in 2017 of the brand new Allam Medical building.

This is a new role to support the delivery of Faculty and School research strategies, working closely with the Associate Dean for Research, School Directors of Research and Principal Investigators. You will provide operational leadership for the management of research activities in the Faculty, leading a research office team and developing research support provision.

You can make a huge contribution to our research, working alongside the University Research and Enterprise Directorate and NHS partners. You will need significant experience of successfully managing research support and strong partnership working skills to navigate a complex Faculty, its constituent schools and institute, central services and NHS partners. This is a great opportunity to develop your career in a new and vibrant Faculty.

For an informal discussion, please contact Mark Hayter (M.Hayter@hull.ac.uk), Associate Dean for Research, or John Busby, Interim Faculty Business Manager (J.Busby@hull.ac.uk).
