The School of Biological Sciences at Queen’s University Belfast, is currently seeking to recruit a talented Project Manager.
The Centre for Agri-Food Microbiomics (CEAM) is partially funded by the Centre of Innovation and Excellence in Livestock and is led by Queen’s University Belfast (QUB), with participation from many academic institutions across the UK. CEAM has been set up to enable industry to address key research questions using state of the art ‘omic technologies, which are often prohibitively expensive and labour-intensive. CEAM allows access to these technologies in a cost-effective manner, in a ‘one-stop shop’ which will house the UK expertise in Agri-Food Microbiomics allowing access to a range of expertise across monogastric and ruminant animals. Participation of experts in Agri-Food Microbiomics across the UK is unique, allowing CEAM to be a ‘one stop shop’ for industry to access a wide range of expertise and technologies to move their business forward.
Reporting to the CEAM director and the UK expert advisory board, the Project Manager is responsible for establishing and monitoring strategic relationships with industry with the focus of enhancing engagement with CEAM and ensuring timely delivery on projects for the stakeholders.
