The Role and Department
The Role
The Senior Academic Development Manager will be pivotal in enabling the strategic development and implementation of Prosper at Durham, with a focus on creating a programme that is flexible, inclusive and accessible. They will create training and development resources and undertake a substantial proportion of the training and coaching aspects of Prosper alongside internal and external facilitators. The post-holder will be responsible for the operational management of the programme and will have excellent organisational and communication skills and will nurture positive collaborative relationships.
There will be opportunities for the post-holder to develop in their role (e.g. in scholarship and/or management and leadership) and engage in opportunities within the researcher development environment at Durham and explore new avenues for early career researcher training, development and networking that may be of strategic importance for the university.
