Research Services
A rare opportunity has arisen to join our Research Services department, in the Research Development team, on a permanent part-time (0.5 FTE) basis. This role offers the opportunity for hybrid working – some time on campus and some from home.
In this position you will work with academics from a variety of disciplines across the Cornwall campuses to provide front line support and advice to academics across the research project lifecycle from idea to impact, supporting both the research development and financial elements. This includes identifying funding opportunities, coordinating bid development and supporting live projects and post project activities. This role will directly support low risk to standard projects.
About you
You will have experience with budget preparation and supporting bids to external bodies, have excellent communication and organisational skills, with the ability to work well under pressure having to prioritise multiple demands. You will be able to work to deadlines and have a high level of current and relevant IT skills.
Please ensure you read the Job Description and Person Specification for full details of this role.
