The Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment is establishing a new specialist sub-centre focused on leveraging, strengthening and amplifying research.

The Chair will provide strategic vision and leadership to the centre and act as its public ‘face’ by leading its engagement and communication strategy. They will develop a strong and cohesive senior leadership team and oversee the centre’s governance, by leading the relationship with the Advisory Board. As the centre’s principal ambassador and advocate, the Chair will ensure that its work is at forefront of global debates and problem-solving the major political and economic issues of our time and enhance its reputation for international research, academic excellence, and public engagement. 

Candidates should have international stature, based on a relevant track record as a leader of policy development and practice, and demonstrable strength of purpose and vision with a track record of devising and delivering innovation, transformation, and change in a complex environment and through successful consensus-building. They will have the ability to attract and recruit top talent, motivate the team, and delegate effectively, as well as a strong commitment to fund-raising and an understanding of what this means in practice. They will have evidence of being self-reflective and aware of his/her own limitations, leading by example and driving the organisation's performance with an attitude of continuous improvement by being open to feedback and self-improvement. Candidates will have the ability to work across Europe and with an understanding of relevant policy/political developments across the EU/UK.
