About the role
We have an exciting opportunity for a new role of IBME Finance Portfolio Manager to support the Institute of Biomedical Engineering within the Department of Engineering Science.  You will be expected to deliver a high quality, efficient and effective service across all aspects of financial administration, financial analysis/forecasting, and financial reporting, together with the development of robust and efficient procedures, ensuring full compliance with the University’s Financial Regulations and policies.  This full-time post is permanent and is based at the Institute of Biomedical Engineering, Headington.

You will support all financial aspects of our rapidly growing biomedical engineering research, which involves extensive collaborations with other Oxford departments across the MPLS and Medical Sciences Divisions of the University, funders, industrial collaborators and government. You will play a critical part in ensuring financial discipline in the submission of applications and subsequent expenditure of research budgets, and in developing the financial strategy for sustainable growth of biomedical engineering research.  

You will work closely with the IBME Director and the IBME Administrator, as part of the professional services team of the IBME, providing institute-level financial reporting and forecasting. Within the wider department you will work closely with colleagues in the Research Administration and HR teams, and your colleagues in the Finance Team, to provide accurate budgets and forecasts of research activity and overhead recovery. 

About you
You should be educated to degree level or hold equivalent experience, with evidence of strong intellectual, numerical and analytical skills.  You should also have a full or part CCAB accountancy qualification (e.g. ACCA or CIMA), or with equivalent experience in a finance role, as well as demonstrate financial aptitude with a high level of attention to detail and the ability to produce clear and concise financial/research reports.  Proven experience of financial operations and financial management in a complex and challenging environment, including financial planning, analysis and budgetary control are also essential.

  • An excellent contributory pension scheme
  • 38 days annual leave
  • A comprehensive range of childcare services
  • Family leave schemes
