Could you be an experienced administrator with excellent organisational skills, attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities within a busy programme environment?

This is an exciting opportunity to be part of the Programme team working on a £20m UKRI funded programme to support autonomy businesses across the region.

About the role:

As the LIPF Administrator, you will provide administrative support across all programme activities and workstreams, including:

  • support the effective delivery of the programme through the coordination of meetings.
  • maintenance of programme records.
  • stakeholder communications.
  • documentation management and administrative processes.
  • coordinate working group meetings, including scheduling, documentation and follow-up actions.
  • be a key coordination point for programme information and programme communications.
  • support reporting, monitoring, event delivery and procurement activities.
  • ensure records are maintained in accordance with University and funder requirements.

Working closely with the Programme Director, Programme Manager, Grant Manager, the Ecosystem Integration and Navigation Team and external partners, you will help ensure the smooth operation of programme activities and governance arrangements.

For this role, you will need to be on site 1 days a week. Although we can accommodate working from home for this role, flexibility to be on-site will be expected due to business needs.

This is a full time, fixed term role working 37 hours per week until 31/03/2031 due to funding.
