Based in Plymouth, but operating globally, this role will make a significant contribution to our business and will require a person with an excellent track record for co-ordinating the delivery of high-quality research focussed projects and services.

So, if you want a role with a commercial edge, plenty of challenge and diversity that provides lots of rewards then this job could be perfect for you. 

Accountable to the CiC Chair and a member of the Board and Executive Team, this role will lead our fantastic Delivery Team and create the environment and culture required to support consistent delivery of client expectations and positive impact for the communities we serve.

As a member of the Executive Team, you will collaboratively work together to deliver the 5-Year Plan enabling the CiC social purpose and strategic aspirations to be achieved.
