About the role:

The Cross-Institute Partnerships Manager plays a key role in developing, coordinating and supporting strategic external partnerships that enhance the Institute's scientific environment and advance its strategic priorities.

Working within the Strategy, Policy & Partnerships team, the role focuses on partnerships that span multiple departments, programmes or functions across the Institute. These may include collaborations with universities and research institutes, scientific societies, non-profit organisations, research consortia and peer networks that bring researchers together across disciplines.

It also helps establish and continuously improve the Institute's approach to partnership management, ensuring that strategic relationships are visible, coordinated and delivering value across the organisation.

Working closely with the Senior Translation Partnerships Manager, the postholder will ensure a consistent and coordinated approach to external engagement while maintaining clear accountabilities across different partnership types.

We welcome applications from individuals with a broad range of skills and experience and encourage applications from curiosity-driven people with backgrounds that don’t exactly fit our requirements, but who can provide proof of exceptional work, for instance with a portfolio of projects or code repositories.

We place a high value on work-life balance and are dedicated to supporting our team members with family-friendly policies and benefits, including flexible working arrangements. We welcome full- and part-time applicants for this role.
