Over the next two years, the University will implement a new grant application and award costing system (Worktribe), move its finance system (Agresso) to the cloud, rewrite system integrations, and review its approach to reporting on research management data.

You will be involved in identifying new ways of collecting and reporting data effectively, and improving and automating existing processes where possible.

The team works closely with other colleagues within RIS and wider University (especially from the Digital, Data and Technology department, Library, Vice-Chancellor's Office, and research managers in the Faculties and School).
