Project Co-ordinator (Part Time, Fixed Term)

University of Cambridge - Centre for Research in Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities

Location: Cambridge
Salary: £30,805 to £35,116 per annum, pro rata
Hours: Part Time
Contract Type: Fixed-Term/Contract
Placed On: 10th July 2025
Closes: 24th July 2025
Job Ref: VM46531

The Centre for Geopolitics invites applicants to join our busy and enthusiastic team as a Project Coordinator, providing dedicated administrative support to our Baltic Geopolitics Programme.

This is a part-time (4 days per week) role that will involve running meetings and organising events and a summer school, both in the UK and potentially overseas, tracking and facilitating budget income and expenditure, liaising with guest speakers, academics and stakeholders, and generally ensuring the smooth administrative running of the Programme.

The role requires an ability to work independently, with plenty of initiative, great attention to detail, and a truly unflappable nature. For the right individual, however, it will prove a fulfilling and exciting role, balancing event organisation (booking venues and accommodation, liaising with speakers and visitors, helping to promote events and being present on the day / evening) with managing a budget.

The Centre for Geopolitics is a research centre within the Centre for Research in the Arts, Social Sciences and Humanities (CRASSH). The Centre's mission is to confront the major problems of world order, past, present and future. By applying historical analysis, political science and the experience of practitioners to the world's most pressing geopolitical challenges, we offer a deeper understanding of where these challenges have come from, how they may develop, and how they might be resolved.

The Centre has grown rapidly since its inception in 2015 and is continuing to grow. We are based in Fitzwilliam House on Trumpington Street (opposite the Fitzwilliam Museum), and the advertised role is office-based, as there is a need to attend in-person meetings and events throughout the week. 

The working pattern is four days per week, provisionally Monday to Thursday, including some evening work (no more than two evenings per week).

Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available for 2 years in the first instance.
