The Opportunity

The Manager is responsible for managing the end-to-end delivery of the activities of the Victorian mRNA Innovation Hub. The Innovation hub is headquartered within MIPS, but the Hub manager will coordinate activities across four nodes – MIPS and the Biomedical Discovery Institute at Monash alongside the Doherty Institute and Faculty of Engineering at the University of Melbourne.

The position works closely with project stakeholders, both internal and external, across these four nodes (and two universities), most notably the MIPS Director and the four Innovation hub node leaders, to deliver projects in accordance with agreed timeframes, within budget and to achieve strategic business outcomes.

Additionally, the Manager is responsible for all aspects of project management, including providing expert advice on project related matters and supporting change initiatives where required.

As the successful candidate, you will have extensive project management expertise, with proven experience in successfully managing all aspects of medium to large scale projects through to completion. Your strengths in communication and stakeholder engagement will ensure your success in this critical role. A strong science background is essential and experience in the development of mRNA products and/or delivery technologies is highly desirable. 

If this sounds like a position that suits your current career focus, we look forward to hearing from you!

This role is a full-time position; however, flexible working arrangements may be negotiated.
