About the role
We have an exciting opportunity for a Research Community Coordinator to join Oxford Cancer. Cancer Research UK (CRUK) is building a Research Data Community Support Unit (DCSU) with their £2.5m investment. The aim of this unit is to support a connected and collaborative data community that tackles common challenges collectively, shares best practices and drives data culture change. Activities are driven by a group of community leads across 6 areas of special interest.
Oxford Cancer is working together with CRUK to support the development of this new research data community network, and we are looking to appoint a full time Research Community Coordinator based at the Oxford University's Biomedical Research Campus in Headington. This role is the critical link between the cancer research data community and CRUK. The coordinator will support the community leads in delivery of DCSU virtual and in-person networking, events, and activities, as well as the development and dissemination of outputs from funded projects.
This post is offered on a full-time, fixed-term basis for 3 years and based at the Oxford Cancer, OCDEM, Churchill Hospital, Oxford, OX3 7LE.
