We blaze the trail we’ve made for ourselves: new opportunities, new possibilities. We are proud of our outstanding learning, world-leading research, and culture of enterprise, and through our Strategy 2030 we have challenged ourselves to go further. A key element of this is delivering research, innovation and knowledge exchange with the impact and power to transform lives and transform the future.

We passionately believe in the transformational power of research, and are already delivering world-leading applied research for the greatest societal good, encompassing everything from the resilience of our waterways to the ethics of AI. We ask the questions some might be afraid to ask, and give voice to groups whose voices are seldom heard.

To achieve our full potential, we are seeking an exceptional individual to lead and champion the strategic direction of our research. A key member of the Vice-Chancellor’s Executive, and reporting to the Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Provost, you will oversee all aspects of research, including postgraduate research, grant capture, research partnerships and Research Excellence. As a key external representative of UWE, you will build strong, sustained and impactful external networks to support our research and knowledge exchange strategies.

We are seeking an inspirational, strategic, values-led leader. With a personal track-record of academic achievement, and an international reputation in your field, you will be a proven senior leader with a strong commitment to the University’s values. A proven research leader and natural collaborator, you will have emotional intelligence and a passion for innovation and creativity.
