The Role

The Royal Agricultural University (RAU) has been at the forefront of agricultural education for over 175 years and is globally renowned for its links with industry and courses that are designed to meet the demands of the changing land-based sector.

The RAU is committed to doing research that makes a difference on the ground, working to address global challenges including climate change, food security, and water resource management. Our vision is to achieve a global reputation for excellence and leadership across our teaching, research, and engagement, with a goal to achieve at least 75% of research outputs being judged as world-leading.

The core role of the Interim Research and Knowledge Exchange (KE) Manager will be to lead research, research consultancy, and KE support across the research project lifecycle, as well as leading the establishment of the RAU's portfolio of knowledge transfer activities.

Strong project management, operational, and organizational skills are required, including technical skills to review and draft contracts and agreements. The role will require a high level of stakeholder engagement, both internally and externally, with excellent customer service practices and delivery of quality services, and the drive to deliver business improvements.
