Stirling, Stirling, United Kingdom University of Stirling Full time

Location: Stirling Campus

The Post

Everywhere in the world people organize in relation to water. Its resources and assets provide essential 'goods' and 'services' and huge opportunities for the economy, society and communities. Harnessing these productively is a key route to optimising growth, value and community outcomes, as well as meeting important environmental goals.

This post is part of a £5m Local Policy Innovation Partnership project funded by UKRI (UK Research and Innovation) over 3 years to explore these issues in the Forth Water Basin in Scotland. The Partnership, called 'FORTH2O', involves six Universities and Institutes, as well as over eighty stakeholder partners (including Scottish Government, Scottish Water and SEPA). This is a hugely exciting opportunity to make a real difference for the health and wealth of our businesses, communities, and natural ecosystems. Through a range of innovative core projects; challenge, innovation and living 'labs'; and a commissioning fund of £1.2m to support new activity, the partnership will play a vital role in 'optimising outcomes' from the water system.

Description of Duties

  • Manage strategy and resources to maximise the potential of the partnership through detailed oversight, motivation and facilitation of the successful delivery of the programme of work, in line with the proposition leading to the award.
  • Using professional project management software, to support and monitor the progress of programme plans to ensure delivery at the key stages and goals, including budget and financial reporting, risk register, and compliance with Partnership governance and management requirements.
  • Liaise and build strong relationships with the academic team and wider Partnership at a senior level, spanning organisations within Scotland, the wider UK and internationally, working with the Research Partnership Officer to build, develop and deliver effective strategies for information sharing, co-ordination and collaboration.
  • In collaboration with the Project Principal Investigator and Partnership Executive Group, prepare and maintain a detailed set of project plans, aligned to the governance, monitoring and evaluation outlines. Lead the organisation of meetings, supporting the attendance and participation of members.

Essential Criteria

  • Educated to degree level or equivalent or employment experience across a range of roles with increasing levels of responsibility
  • Excellent project management and organisation skills, with practical experience of managing large projects, preferably in a research or higher education setting, including experience of working successfully in the areas of innovation and/or partnership development
  • Strong commitment to operational excellence, and experience of working successfully within complex regulations / frameworks
