No Offer Description
The part-time position (0.3 FTE) will be located in the Centre for Cancer Immunology at Southampton General Hospital. The Centre is a recently constructed building dedicated to research which was the result of a major fundraising campaign. The Centre draws on a 40-year history of pioneering immunology and cancer research at Southampton. The Centre is the first dedicated centre for cancer immunology in the UK bringing together the entire research pipeline under one roof: from pioneering scientific discovery to applied research and preclinical modelling and, crucially, first-in-human clinical trials and beyond. The Centre houses world-class research facilities, which include not only state-of-the-art scientific laboratories, but also a clinical trials unit. This part-time position is associated with the laboratory of Professors E. S. Ward, FRS, and R. Ober who have relocated their research group from the United States to Southampton. Their interdisciplinary research program is dedicated to the development of new antibody-based therapies which in the past have led to several new therapies. The group also develops advanced microscopy techniques for the evaluation of new therapies in cellular environments. The post-holder will be highly motivated and enthusiastic about the challenges of supporting a dynamic, interdisciplinary group of researchers with management and support roles. The duties relate to the independent management and execution of interactions with the funder of this post. Duties will include assistance with preparing reports as requested by the funder. This position is an exciting opportunity for a candidate with a scientific background who is looking to acquire the necessary administrative skills required to assist with the running of an active scientific group. Alternatively, it would also be of interest to a candidate with an administrative background who would enjoy working in a dynamic research environment. Although direct experience in the role described in the job description is not a prerequisite, administrative or scientific experience is highly desirable. Applicants are expected to have relevant academic qualifications and work experience, and will also have good computer skills, the ability to plan and organize their own workload, show initiative, work well under pressure and communicate effectively and professionally with a range of stakeholders within the organization and outside. The position is for 10.5 hours per week and is initially for 2 years. Availability of funds for a period beyond the 2-year timeframe is anticipated.
