Cambridge, United Kingdom University of Cambridge Full time

The mission of the Cambridge Graphene Centre (CGC) is to investigate the science and technology of graphene and related materials. The CGC also hosts the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Graphene Technology, and the Layered Materials Research Foundry (LMRF), as well as the Quantum and Advanced Materials technologies for a Sustainable Society (QAMSS) Strategic Research Initiative (SRI). The CDT works closely with industry to ensure that successful students are properly equipped to follow careers in both industry and academia. The LMRF provides wafer-scale integration of Layered Materials (LMs) on up to 8" substrates, and silicon photonics multi-project wafers, in collaboration with CORNERSTONE at the University of Southampton. The CGC SRF caters for well over 100 users from academia and industry, both within and outside Cambridge, and the UK.

The CGC is a very busy and dynamic environment and we are seeking an experienced administrator to join us in West Cambridge to coordinate the administrative tasks of the Centre, ensuring that the Director of the CGC can work effectively. Reporting to the Director regularly, you will be responsible for assessing and responding to issues, providing a wide range of administrative services, and referring more complex queries as appropriate. You will be actively engaged with a large variety of stakeholders, both internal and external to the University. A high volume of enquires are received every day from a diverse range of individuals, and the Centre's reputation relies on a friendly and efficient interface with all who make contact. This is crucial in securing funds, and to maintain and establish good relationships with industries, universities, funding bodies, media, etc.

You will be educated to degree level or have an equivalent level of practical experience with previous experience in an administrative role within a busy office environment. You will possess excellent communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to interact with a wide range of people. Excellent organisational skills are also an essential requirement for this role as well as significant experience of Microsoft Office.

Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available for 1 years in the first instance.

The University has a responsibility to ensure that all employees are eligible to live and work in the UK.
