The Rosalind Franklin Institute is a national interdisciplinary research centre, funded by the UK government through UK Research and Innovation (UKRI). We are dedicated to creating new disruptive technologies which will allow us to see the biological world in new ways - from picometre-scale atoms to centimetre-scale tumours. These technological advances will speed up the discovery of new medicines, help find new diagnostics and contribute to a deeper understanding of human health and disease.
The Franklin operates from a purpose-built research facility on the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus near Didcot, a unique community of government, academia and industry working to accelerate progress on key issues. The 700-acre campus is steeped in world-firsts, and technology and research are at the heart of everything Harwell does.
Our building houses both specialist laboratories, research scientists and operational staff within a state-of-the art facility designed to inspire our people in their work and create a welcoming hub for our collaborations and visitors. Our research values of adventure, novelty, engagement, and utility are drawn on and exemplified by the Franklin team through our collaborations with universities and industrial partners, both in the UK and internationally.

As the Project Delivery Manager, you will support the planning, execution, and evaluation of institute-wide projects, ensuring effective communication channels with stakeholders, project sponsors and project teams. Monitoring and coordinating progress will be key, providing regular updates and proactive risk strategies and deviations to plan and budget, and administering key processes across a portfolio of projects.
This is a high-profile role that will have the opportunity to make a significant contribution to the implementation of our strategic goals - to deliver world class science, build a legacy to be proud of, and secure our future success.
We are looking for someone with excellent organisational, communication and negotiating skills, who is committed, and results driven.

- Helping to bring shape and clarity to complex, institute-wide projects, providing project management support to help the partners work effectively towards project requirements and deadlines.
- Helping develop and promote best practices in project management and assisting with the development of standardised project management documentation for institutional projects.
- Establishing close working relationships with Franklin staff, and pro-actively developing a network of external professional contacts.

- Personable and approachable, able to work effectively with a wide range of colleagues and accommodate their differing approaches and styles.
- Strong written and verbal communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build good relationships with staff at all levels.
- Ability to craft clear project documentation and effectively communicate across departments and with stakeholders at all levels will be crucial.
- Highly developed skills of stakeholder engagement, communication, consultation, collaboration, negotiation and influence.
- Ability to work effectively as part of a team, proactively exchanging advice and support with colleagues in a considered and effective manner.
- Strong organisational abilities and excellent attention to detail, with an ability to prioritise and deliver to deadlines.
- Ability to take ownership of tasks, act independently in light of shifting priorities and escalate issues appropriately when required.
- Demonstrate keen problem-solving skills with the ability to quickly come up with solutions, showing plenty of initiative and taking personal responsibility for delivery of work.
- Customer-focused approach and the ability to adapt flexibly, excelling in collaborative environments, motivating and advising team members while effectively managing workloads.
- Comfortable taking on new challenges and learning new skills.
- Ability to use IT systems & software appropriate to the role.
