An exciting opportunity has arisen for a highly motivated, professional and well-organised Executive Co-ordinator and Assistant to the Director of the MHU, Professor KJ Patel. You will play a pivotal role in supporting both the smooth day-to-day administration of the MHU as well as providing a high level of secretarial and administrative support to Professor Patel.

As Professor Patel holds Directorship for both the Institute and the MHU, you will be expected to work closely with the Executive Assistant for the Institute, the Institute Administrator and members of the WIMM administration team, ensuring lines of communication are maintained at all times.

This is a full time, fixed term position until 31 March 2027, funded by the Medical Research Council.

**The closing date for this position is 12 noon on 23 March 2023.
