Research and Enterprise is currently seeking to appoint an exceptional candidate to the post of Project Assistant in Research Policy. This role is an exciting opportunity to support the launch and implementation of a new institutional Postdoctoral Development Centre (PDC), a key priority of the research and innovation strand of the University’s new strategic plan - Strategy 2030. The successful candidate will also support a range of other initiatives taking place in the University’s Research Policy Office, notably including activities to facilitate wider societal engagement and impact from research undertaken at Queen’s.

The University is committed to equality of opportunity and welcomes applications from all. However, our employment monitoring data tells us that individuals from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities, people with a disability and those who identify as LGBT+ are currently under-represented at the University. Male protestants are currently under-represented in this category of work. As such, we particularly welcome applications from these individuals.
As you may be aware, Queen’s is recognised as one of the most diverse organisations in Northern Ireland. We are committed to ensuring our workplace is a safe, welcoming and inclusive place to work, which is why we subscribe to Equality Charter Marks such as Stonewall Workplace Equality Index, Diversity Charter Mark NI and Athena SWAN.
It is also why we have established award winning Staff Networks such as PRISM and iRise. These networks provide an opportunity for staff to meet in a friendly, informal way to support each other.? More details on all our networks can be found at https://www.qub.ac.uk/sites/StaffGateway/StaffNetworks/
