You will also assist with managing recruitment of roles to support the work of CG-TIC and will be a visible point of contact for all aspects related to CG-TIC, involved in setting strategic objectives and solving practical issues with senior scientists and administrative colleagues in Cambridge and GSK.

You will be based in Cambridge, with possible occasional travel within the UK. You will be line-managed by and work closely with Prof. David Thomas, the Cambridge lead for CG-TIC, and will also report regularly to Dr Tammy Dougan, GSK Partnership Manager in the Strategic Partnerships Office.
