Do you have demonstrable understanding of the nature of academic research activity and the research funding environment in Higher Education, in particular for the Arts and Humanities? Do you possess excellent communication skills and a high level of numeracy and accuracy in the presentation of data?

As a member of the School’s Management and Administration Support team (MASS), you will provide efficient and effective support to researchers within the School and will work with key stakeholders to implement the School’s research and impact strategies. This will involve managing, developing and implementing monitoring systems within the School and preparing material for the Annual Research and Innovation Review as well as other planning exercises, as required by the School/Faculty/University. You will work closely with the Director of Research and Innovation, Director of Impact and the REF Unit of Assessment Lead.
