As a collaboration between academic researchers in Bristol, Cambridge and Warwick and industry partners, led by Bristol, the role holder will help propel REWIRE to drive the transition of technologies that emerge from fundamental research towards proof-of-concept, commercialisation, and exploitation

- Manage and support the research & development of others including leadership of capacity building and thematic initiatives, particularly those aligned with IKC’s and University research challenge areas and the industrial landscape in Net Zero semiconductor technology.
- A proven track record of relevant, extensive experience in the Semiconductor Electronic industry/commercial sector, demonstrating an authoritative understanding of the relevant industries;
- Experience in senior management expertise and wide exposure to complex practices and precedents;
- A developed knowledge of the principles, theory and practice in relevant industries as well as having a deep understanding of Government policies and strategies in relation to relevant industries;
