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.
Are you an effective administrator with experience of supporting the day-to-day operations of a busy department, office, hotel or meeting venue? Do you have experience of coordinating and delivering a range of in-person, online, and hybrid meetings and events? Can you prioritise a busy workload and do you thrive when given responsibility for a range of different projects and tasks? Would you like to play a core role in supporting the activities and projects of a world class scientific research centre?
The Energy Demand Research Centre (EDRC) is an exciting multi-disciplinary and multi-institution research collaboration with a total investment from UKRI of around £15m. EDRC has a mission to accelerate the delivery of the UK’s net zero commitments by unlocking the potential of solutions to reduce energy demand as part of a transition to a fairer and healthier society. This post is to provide support to two of the five research themes which are being led from the Institute for Transport Studies. The Place theme (led by Prof. Greg Marsden) explores how a more locally sensitive set of solutions could deliver more rapid and relevant change. The Governance theme (led by Prof. Kate Pangbourne) explores how to change decision-making processes to accelerate delivery.
The Institute for Transport Studies is seeking to employ an Administration and Project Support Officer to join the EDRC team at Leeds and to co-ordinate with the main management teams at the University of Sussex and University of Birmingham from where the wider centre is led. The role holder will work in collaboration with a 20% FTE Project Officer who has established the Centre’s administrative approach during the first year and to whom the role holder will report on a regular basis. As a core member of the team, you will have a varied role in supporting the effective operations and activities of the EDRC activities being led by the Place and Governance themes. You will support the organisation and delivery of a wide range of online, hybrid, and in-person meetings and events, supporting research delivery, reporting and promoting research outputs as well as linking our contributions to the wider Centre Team.
