**Research Culture Administrator**:
**Grade 5: (£25,742 - £29,605 p.a. depending on experience)**:
This role will be based on the university campus, with scope for it to be undertaken in a hybrid manner. We are also open to discussing flexible working arrangements.

The University of Leeds is one of the top 135 universities in the world. We have a truly global community, with more than 39,000 students from 170 different countries and over 9,000 staff of 100 different nationalities. Established in 1904, we have a strong tradition of academic excellence, reflected in first-class student education, along with world-leading research that has a real impact around the globe.

The University’s Strategy 2020-2030 states that we can only achieve our ambitions in research, education, and societal impact through a collaborative, diverse, inclusive, and supportive culture. In line with changing research practices across the sector, the University is focusing its attention and resources on fostering a more positive research culture for its current and future generations of research teams.

Research culture activities were formalised in 2021, marking the start of a University-wide consultation which analysed successes and challenges to our research culture. 2023-24 will see the development and implementation of our institutional research culture strategy, which focuses on valuing diverse forms of research activity, embedding EDI principles in research practices, enabling open research practices, and mutually supporting and developing research teams.

We are looking for an enthusiastic, efficient, and well-organised individual to provide administrative support to the Research Culture team. You will join a highly collaborative and collegiate team led by the Dean for Research Culture. You will provide administrative and financial management support for research culture projects funded by a range of internal and external sources.

You will have experience in professional administrative support in the areas of finance or research management, and a familiarity with institutional financial processes. You should be a good problem solver with strong analytical and communication skills, and the ability to work to competing deadlines. You should demonstrate equity, diversity, and inclusion practices. The ability to work alone and within teams is essential, as are strong organisational and interpersonal skills.
