We are excited to invite applications for a Research Fellow (Communications and Education Officer) position funded by the EU, as part of a new European Partnership on Animal Health and Welfare. The position will be based in the School of Biosciences at the University of Surrey but will involve working closely with colleagues in the School of Veterinary Medicine. You will be part of a team and will support communication and educational activities in a vibrant, interdisciplinary research environment with a strong international reputation.
The ideal candidate will have a strong interest in research related to animal health and welfare, and will have experience of managing communication and education activities within a large international project. This role is ideal for candidates who have a strong track record of producing content for, and managing, social media channels, in addition to experience of organising educational, dissemination, and exploitation activities.
The role will specifically include organising summer schools, short-term missions, workshops, scientific conferences, training courses, and supporting PhD students, therefore experience of organising events and in communicating complex scientific information in clear, concise, and accurate language that can be understood by scientific audiences and the general public would be an advantage. We would be particularly keen to hear from candidates who have previously worked as part of an international scientific project team.
We are open to candidates who are interested in working on a full-time or part-time basis (please specify your preference as part of your application).
What we can offer
In addition to your salary, you will receive a generous annual leave entitlement, relocation assistance where appropriate, attractive research environments, the latest teaching facilities, and access to a variety of staff development opportunities. Furthermore, our benefit packages include pension, childcare assistance and discounted membership to University sports facilities.
The University of Surrey is located on a beautiful, leafy campus in Guildford, just 30 miles from London and benefits from excellent rail, air, and road connections.
Further Information
To apply please submit a CV and cover letter detailing your motivation in applying for the role. You will also be asked some brief questions to help us understand your suitability for the role.
For an informal discussion or further details, please contact Professor Roberto La Ragione via [email protected]
