Edinburgh, United Kingdom The University of Edinburgh Full time

Full time: 35 hours per week.

Fixed Term: for 2 years.

The Opportunity:

A substantial minority of researchers experience hostility when working in interdisciplinary research environments. Our project’s intent is to catalyse enduring change by integrating good practices into ongoing operations of research teams and organisations. The project manager/researcher will lead on project planning and monitoring, team communication and reporting, delivering research surveys and interviewing data scientists. The postholder will also monitor progress against targets and resolve problems whilst working closely with other members of the UK consortium.

We are looking for an enthusiastic project manager/researcher to help deliver the UK “Hostile or Collegial research culture?” (HxC) project. The HxC project will: (1) Give voice to interdisciplinary scientists from all backgrounds who feel let down; (2) Draw from insights of researchers, industry, patient and public representatives to challenge longstanding issues in interdisciplinary research culture; (3) Develop evidence-based guidelines to improve this culture; (4) Test these draft guidelines in teams from partner institutions of Health Data Research UK and UK Dementia Research Institute; and (5) Integrate good research culture practices to maximise the future impact of UK biomedical data research.

This post is full-time (35 hours per week), however, we are open to considering part-time or flexible working patterns.  We are also open to considering requests for hybrid working (on a non-contractual basis) that combines a mix of remote and regular on-campus working.

Your skills and attributes for success:

  • Experience in taking responsibility for co-ordinating project members, resources and activities. 
  • Experience in co-ordinating and developing strategies for effective operational management, integration and running of projects.
  • Able to independently prioritise workload and take decisions on key aspects of focus.
  • Able to collaborate effectively across institutions and scientific disciplines.
  • Effectively deliver surveys and interviews.
