Norwich, United Kingdom John Innes Centre Full time

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Neurodiversity Project Officer to join the Directorate, to support the cutting-edge science of the John Innes Centre.

The role

Working as part of the Directorate, you will be responsible for implementing, delivering, monitoring, and reporting on a BBSRC-funded ‘Connecting Culture Project’, which aims to foster cross-institutional activities and sharing of best practice.

The project, led by JIC, will focus on increasing awareness around neurodiversity and celebrating the value it brings. The project seeks to establish a supportive and inclusive environment for neurodiverse staff and students through combining training, awareness building and networking activities.

In this role, you will have the opportunity to develop your skills in project management and knowledge of EDI practices relating to neurodiversity, as well as establishing broader networks while refining your communication and engagement skills.

The ideal candidate

The ideal candidate will be passionate about EDI, research culture and our science, who can confidently manage a collaborative neurodiversity project, including the delivery of events and the creation written and digital content to promote the activities. The post holder will be able to interact with a range of people at different levels both internally and externally and understand how and why valuing neurodiversity is important.

Candidates will have five GCSE’s grade A-C (including English) or equivalent. Education to a degree level and/or a relevant professional qualification will be highly advantageous.

You will have a strong understanding of EDI and its impact in the workplace. An excellent understanding of neurodiversity is also highly desirable. Candidates should also have demonstrable experience in project management, preferably in EDI or related initiatives, and developing content, events and activities that are informative, accurate and engaging. Previous experience working in a research institute or similar academic environment would be beneficial.
