The post

Everywhere in the world people organize in relation to water. Its resources and assets provide essential 'goods' and 'services' and huge opportunities for the economy, society and communities. Harnessing these productively is a key route to optimising growth, value and community outcomes, as well as meeting important environmental goals.

This post is part of a £5m Local Policy Innovation Partnership project funded by UKRI (UK Research and Innovation) over 3 years to explore these issues in the Forth Water Basin in Scotland. The Partnership, called ‘FORTH2O’, involves six Universities and Institutes, as well as over eighty stakeholder partners (including Scottish Government, Scottish Water and SEPA). This is a hugely exciting opportunity to make a real difference for the health and wealth of our businesses, communities, and natural ecosystems. Through a range of innovative core projects; challenge, innovation and living ‘labs’; and a commissioning fund of £1.2m to support new activity, the partnership will play a vital role in ‘optimising outcomes’ from the water system.

Description of duties

  • Work with the Project Principal Investigator, Research Partnership Manager and other project partners to build, develop and manage effective strategies for information sharing, co-ordination and collaboration between Partnership members
  • Provide regular analysis of the above Partnership strategies to the Project Principal Investigator and Partnership Executive Group (PEG), and initiate processes and procedures to resolve new problems across the matrix of project partners
  • Liaise and build strong relationships with internal and external networks through which innovation can be pursued, including with intermediaries
  • Manage internal partnership communications, using MS Teams and associated Sharepoint sites effectively to connect Partnership members and researchers

Essential criteria

  • Educated to degree level or equivalent or employment experience across a range of roles with increasing levels of responsibility
  • Practical experience of working on large projects, preferably in a research or higher education setting
  • Excellent skills in communicating effectively at all levels, both orally and in writing, with the ability to communicate using a wide range of styles appropriate to different individuals, groups and situations
