This new post is key to the successful development of the recently

a multidisciplinary institute involving several Schools and covering a 
wide range of academic areas including mathematics, engineering, physics 
and computer sciences.

The successful candidate will be expected to be proactive in bringing 
together the different academic groups involved in the new Institute and 
will play an essential role in helping them to realise their collaborative 
research potential.  Working closely with the Directors of the Institute 
and senior academic staff across the Schools, the key objectives will be 
to develop collaborative research projects across the member departments, 
and to raise the Institute's profile through proactive marketing.

This is an exciting opportunity for a self-starter who is keen to become 
actively involved in individual project development, whilst also taking a 
leading role in some of the planned strategic initiatives.  Candidates 
must hold a degree in mathematics, physics or engineering, or significant 
relevant work experience, and an understanding of the academic and 
research environment.  Excellent interpersonal, negotiating and 
presentation skills are essential.
