The successful candidate will have a good first degree or equivalent qualification and a PhD in a relevant field would be desirable.

We are looking for someone with administrative or project management experience, preferably gained in a research-related role within a higher education, industry, or government environment and prior knowledge and understanding of precision health-related research would also be desirable.

If you think you are the ideal candidate for this role, we would be delighted to hear from you.

Temporary cover: This post is fixed-term until 23 May 2025 or the return of the post holder, whichever is the earlier.
