Part-time 0.50 fte – 18.25 hours

This exciting new role has been created to support and expand the pipeline of Lancaster's Research Commercialisation activity to generate opportunities for external collaboration and impact. We are keen to continue the upward trajectory in this space that we have seen over the last few years. The Research Commercialisation Administrator will be a key part of a small team that works with academic colleagues across campus and a wide range of professional Knowledge Exchange (KE), Research Development and Support (RDS) and Research Impact (RI) staff.

The role holder will have a key part to play in undertaking administration associated with the Research Commercialisation Team including accurate record keeping, financial monitoring, organisation of meetings and events and updating Research Commercialisation activities using the University's Knowledge Exchange and Engagement Portal (KEEP) CRM.

The Research Commercialisation Administrator will also be expected to support the ongoing management of the University Intellectual Property (IP) portfolio including liaison with inventors and external suppliers to ensure accurate and timely submission of all necessary documentation.

We are looking to appoint an individual who can grow into the role, with a keen interest in learning more about university research commercialisation.
