Oxford hosts one of the world’s most extensive and diverse AI research communities, spanning fundamental AI, ethics and governance, robotics, medicine, climate science and more. That breadth is a strength, but it also requires careful coordination, which this role will support.
As AI Research Coordinator, you’ll work with the newly appointed Chair of AI@Oxford, Prof Sir Nigel Shadbolt, to connect people, projects and ideas across all four academic divisions and GLAM (Gardens Libraries and Museums). You’ll map the University’s AI activity, build an Oxford-wide AI network, develop a coherent external presence, and create the structures that help researchers collaborate more effectively. You’ll shape how Oxford presents its AI work to funders, policymakers and partners, and you’ll play a key part in setting out a clearer strategic direction for a field that is moving fast.
You’ll need strong organisational and communication skills, and a genuine interest in AI and its implications. If you want to help one of the world’s leading universities strengthen its approach to a rapidly evolving area of research, this role is for you.
