About this role

About the role

This role is an important addition to the University's Research Support Team and offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to the effective delivery of the University's research governance activities. Working as an 0.4 FTE Research Integrity and Ethics Assistant (15 hours per week), you will collaborate closely with the existing 0.6 FTE Research Integrity and Ethics Assistant on a job share basis. Both postholders will collectively fulfil the responsibilities of the full role profile.

We are seeking an organised, proactive and customer-focused individual who is able to manage a varied workload, work confidently with sensitive information and liaise effectively with a wide range of colleagues. Experience of administrative support, process coordination and reporting will be advantageous, together with an interest in research governance and ethics.

This post is 15 hours per week, and we welcome discussions about flexible working arrangements and the pattern of working. To ensure service continuity, you will need to be available to work on Mondays and on at least one of Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. This is to enable appropriate support for service delivery, as well as opportunities for collaboration and knowledge sharing with the other postholder.
