• Support research administration and communication activities, including routine correspondence with stakeholders and members;
• Ensure that research projects are run effectively and efficiently, and achieve their desired outcomes; liaising with beneficiaries, partners and funders where appropriate.

PERSON SPECIFICATION

The job holder should be able to demonstrate the following essential skills, knowledge and experience:

• You will have outstanding research skills (qualitative or quantitative).
• A postgraduate qualification in a relevant field or equivalent professional experience
• Technical cyber security knowledge, coupled with expertise in policy challenges relating to emerging technology, is desirable.

• You will have well-developed interpersonal and communication skills and be able to communicate complex material with clarity, both orally and in writing.
• You will be a collaborative team player who can work successfully as part of a team, while having the capacity to take forward your own work without the need for excessive supervision.
• You will be highly motivated to develop new knowledge through original research and to apply new and existing knowledge to real-world problems.
