The postholder will provide trusted research due diligence support to academic researchers working with international partners where compliance assessments are required. These assessments will focus primarily on trusted research due diligence in relation to export control legislation, the National Security Act and the Foreign Influence Registration Scheme (FIRS). The postholder will also deliver researcher training, support export control licence applications, and maintain a risk register to support ongoing compliance and monitoring.
The ideal candidate will hold a first degree in a STEM subject and have a strong understanding of the reputational, financial and geopolitical risks facing UK universities. The role requires the ability to communicate complex legislative information effectively and to develop clear guidance documents for academic researchers.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to adapt messages for staff at all levels of the university, will be essential, as well as being able to work effectively under pressure, manage multiple concurrent issues, and respond flexibly to changing priorities.
