About the Role
The Events and Marketing Co-ordinator, working under the line management of the Newton Gateway Manager, is a key role within the small team supporting the work of the Newton Gateway to Mathematics. The Events and Marketing Co-ordinator will contribute to Newton Gateway projects, ensuring successful delivery of activities associated with the initiative.

The Institute and the Newton Gateway to Mathematics
The Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences (INI) is a national and international visitor research centre running programmes on selected themes, with applications in a very wide range of societal, scientific and technological areas. The Institute attracts leading scientists, both from the UK and from overseas, to interact on research over extended periods.
The Newton Gateway to Mathematics is the impact initiative of the INI and acts as a knowledge intermediary for the mathematical sciences. Supported by INI and the University of Cambridge, the Newton Gateway engages with the users of mathematics - in industry, business, public sector and other scientific disciplines. It helps to bridge the gap between those engaged in frontier mathematical research and those working in more applied areas, by stimulating the interchange of knowledge and ideas. Typically, the Newton Gateway develops and runs 20-25 knowledge exchange activities per year as part of its programmes of work.
The INI is committed to staff development and encourages staff to participate in the wide range of personal and professional development activities offered by the University.
What you will need
In this role, your event development and delivery experience and excellent project co-ordination skills will enable you ensure the aims and objectives of the Newton Gateway are achieved. With a degree level/Level 6 vocational qualification or equivalent level of practical experience, you will use your interpersonal skills and administrative experience, to effectively and flexibly support the rest of the close-knit Newton Gateway team, ensuring the planned activities run smoothly. You will also engage with a wide range of other people, including senior stakeholders, so you should have versatile communications skills that will enable you to work closely with academics and individuals from government, business and industry, as well as the wider team of operations staff across INI and its initiatives.
