Tue Jun 23 12:12:47 GMT 2015





*Head of Research, Ravensbourne, *London, UK

Reflecting strategic investment in a major academic area, the role
holder will take responsibility for the academic leadership of research
but also in the first instance for the operational management, oversight
and delivery of Ravensbourne’s research infrastructure.  This will
entail working with the existing Research Fellow and Research
Administrator to establish a cycle of institutional research-facing
activities e.g. receiving and evaluating staff applications for internal
research seed corn funding, mentoring staff research projects,
organising dissemination opportunities (including establishing a
compliant repository), bidding for research funding and developing
research partnerships.

The role holder will have an established research track record,
preferably in the areas of design or media, together with significant
experience of the REF and of bidding for research funding.  He/She will
have a clear strategic view of the research challenges faced by
universities in the current climate – as well as by a small specialist
institutions – and the ability to lead and communicate new initiatives.
The capacity to work collaboratively with the academic and professional
support staff communities will be key to building and supporting
innovative projects.  Applied research at Ravensbourne is on a steady
growth trajectory: thus also important is the ability to plan and
anticipate resource needs and to manage these effectively.  Additionally
the role holder will have excellent interpersonal skills which will
ensure an inclusive approach to the development of new initiatives.

Closing Date: Sunday 5th July 2015
