King's College London is seeking 2 Intellectual Property (IP) & Licensing Managers to join an existing IP & Licensing team responsible for the identification, prosecution, marketing and transaction of IP assets arising from research undertaken at King's College London. We are particularly interested in candidates with knowledge of medtech, biomedical imaging, healthcare engineering and psychiatry & neuroscience.
The IP & Licensing Managers will work with academic staff to ensure that intellectual property is identified, managed, translated and/or commercialised to produce impactful outcomes.
A key part of the roles will be resolving complex due diligence, monitoring and commercialisation issues that require detailed analysis of technical, contractual, stakeholder and commercial factors. The innovation ecosystem at King's is a complex system so the successful candidates will need to be comfortable working in a dynamic network of other members of the IP & Licensing team, colleagues throughout the King's innovation ecosystem, research teams, internal and third party patent and legal management specialists and commercial partners.
Successful candidates will be expected to plan, execute and report on their activities at a very high performance standard, reporting directly to the Director of IP & Licensing.
The ideal candidate will bring significant experience of IP management and commercialisation. He/she will combine strong strategic and project management capabilities with diplomacy, negotiation skills and an ability to work to exceptional quality standards in delivering performance.
