Swindon Village, Gloucestershire, United Kingdom UK Research and Innovation Full time
Job Title: Research Portfolio Manager

Are you passionate about research and innovation? Do you have a strong background in research and a keen interest in working with stakeholders to support excellent research that delivers real impact for the economy and society?

We are seeking a highly motivated and organized Research Portfolio Manager to join our team at UK Research and Innovation. As a Research Portfolio Manager, you will play a key role in the development and delivery of research activities and build relationships with stakeholders within universities and industry to ensure we fund research of the highest quality.

The successful candidate will have a strong understanding of the research landscape and be able to gather, understand, and integrate internal and external information to inform our decision-making processes. You will also have excellent communication and project management skills, with the ability to work effectively independently and as part of a team.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and deliver research activities and build relationships with stakeholders within universities and industry
  • Gather, understand, and integrate internal and external information to inform our decision-making processes
  • Work with external stakeholders to manage strategic relationships and represent UKRI in external networks and meetings
  • Monitor, evaluate, and report on activities and investments to feed into planning
  • Support senior colleagues with the development of projects and implementation of plans

We are looking for a creative thinker who can work effectively in a team environment and has excellent communication and project management skills. If you have a strong background in research and a keen interest in working with stakeholders to support excellent research, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.

Hybrid Working: This role is based at our Swindon office, but we operate a hybrid approach, and you can expect a mix of working from home, the office, and external locations. As we recognize the benefits of in-person working, UKRI currently has a minimum expectation that we will work in person, in the Swindon office, at least 2 days per month. On occasions where there is a business need, you may be required to attend the office more than 2 days a month (e.g., for training, events, or team days). This post also requires travel to attend external visits and meetings.
