The tasks associated with this role include:

  • Working with the Head of IP and Commercial and other members of the IP Unit
  • Managing a portfolio of commercialisation cases on behalf of DHSC
  • Implementation of robust contractual terms for funding health research
  • Co-ordinating legal advice for DHSC on all issues relating to research funding

Qualifications & Experience

  • Expert knowledge of best practice in intellectual property management
  • A degree in a relevant subject (a relevant professional qualification would be desirable)
  • Detailed knowledge of life science research
  • Knowledge of the regulatory framework for intellectual property management
  • An ability to analyse complex commercialisation deals
  • Effective negotiation skills and an understanding of technology transfer licensing

Salary & Benefits

  • Bonus - subject to company performance
  • 25 days annual leave, plus public holidays (UK)
  • Enhanced contributory pension scheme
  • Life Insurance
  • Season Ticket Loan
  • Laptop, IT equipment and remote IT support
