Penryn, United Kingdom University of Exeter Full time

This exciting new open-ended subject to funding post (available 0.8-1 FTE) entails organising and integrating research activity and operations across an extensive research Centre led by Professor Tim Taylor and his team at the European Centre for Environment and Human Health.

This post will support a 5-year funded Centre for Health and Climate Change Solutions (CHeCCS). CHeCCS is a national focus for research, networking and capacity building. It identifies ‘net-positive’ for health solutions, reducing the negative impacts of climate change while maximising the co-benefits of interventions, and provides the basis for furthering scientific advances, policy advice and innovation.

The post-holder will contribute to the strategic operational development and delivery of the Centre, supporting the Project Investigation team and ensuring equitable partnerships across multiple geographical locations and co-ordinate events, communications, budgets and reporting, across diverse groups of stakeholders working within the project’s ethical and equality focused ethos.

This project is due to start on 1st October 2024 and the role is available from thereafter, and is subject to confirmation of funding from UKRI.
