**About the role**

Idox has an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic individual to join the ResearchConnect content team. ResearchConnect supports universities, research institutions and research-intensive companies in identifying and disseminating R&D funding.

With a global client base, we support international research collaboration as well as researcher mobility. Whether its supporting research to combat neurodegenerative diseases like dementia or exploring the potential of low carbon alternative energy solutions, ResearchConnect plays a vital role in connecting researchers with the funding they need.

You will be responsible for researching and writing funding information and news for ResearchConnect, working alongside an experienced team. This role is to focus on our European content areas, so language skills are required. You will have internal ownership of our European funding dataset and provide support to our account team who work with our clients in mainland Europe, including top-tier universities.

You will be home-based with attendance expected at occasional Content Team working days in Manchester. Alternatively, the role could be based from our Glasgow office.

**Key responsibilities**

This is a role which might suit someone with an interest in innovation or funding, and experience in content management, databases or information management. You’ll need strong attention to detail and be able to follow themes and reader interests, research emerging funding news and summarise information succinctly. The role will involve:

- Managing a number of funding datasets and content entries - ensuring that the datasets are continuously updated and maintained by tracking and sourcing new funding opportunities and announcements.
- Compiling, editing and formatting funding opportunities for our databases.
- Authoring news articles for sector-specific information portals.
- Support of clients, via the Research Helpdesk.
- Supporting the Content Team to fulfil our mission to be Europe’s trusted authority on funding.
- Adhere to Idox Information Security & Management System Policies.

The role best suits a proactive, self-motivated individual, capable of managing multiple deadlines and activities.

**To be successful, you’ll need to be**:

- An energetic self-starter with an interest in, or experience of, online research and content creation
- Degree level or equivalent, with confidence in research and strong written English skills
- Able to read technical funder information and news announcements in your European language and translate the key points to English
- Able to learn a new programme quickly and adhere to house style
- Show high standards of accuracy and attention to detail; be able to take responsibility for the quality of one’s own work
- Comfortable with meeting tight deadlines and prioritising workload
- Able to evaluate content quality and identify opportunities for fresh content and news pieces
- Willing to actively contribute to the work of the wider Content Team in finding new ways of ensuring that our content satisfies the needs of our current clients as well as reaching new audiences
- Able to forge strong internal relationships, which are key to the role.

**Additional desirable qualities**:

- We’re looking for someone who will enjoy working with databases and providing quality funding resources for our customers, who include research institutions, universities and the private sector.
- The role offers a great opportunity for someone to develop their skills and gain excellent experience. It may suit an early career person with confident writing skills or a returner to work. We offer flexible working arrangements.
