Global Health Executive Assistant

**Global Health Executive Assistant - Grade 6: £32,332 - £38,205 per annum**





We are looking for an executive assistant to join the friendly and supportive
Research Strategy and Funding Team in the Medical Sciences Divisional Office
in the University of Oxford. This is a great opportunity to provide executive
assistant support for the Director of Global Health, and provide
administrative support for Oxford Global Health events and projects. This new
role will support the establishment of the Oxford Global Health initiative at
the University of Oxford and its inaugural Director. It will suit someone with
excellent interpersonal skills, strong organisational skills, and the ability
to work flexibly, who wants to work in a new, busy, challenging and fast-
moving environment supporting the ultimate aim of improving global health.





The Director of Global Health will operate a busy and complex schedule,
requiring you to provide active support in helping them conduct their business
in a timely and efficient manner. This will include dealing with and
progressing a wide range of matters, often with high profile contacts
requiring you to exercise judgment about the course of action required.





Together with the Global Health Facilitator, you will contribute
administrative support to the establishment and running of a series projects
to further the aims of Oxford Global Health, for example administrative
support for the establishment of a network and organising events.





Oxford Global Health is a University-wide initiative to deliver global health
interdisciplinary partnerships, funding, output, visibility, impact and better
connections between global health activity across all academic divisions of
the University. Oxford Global Health is supported by a core Directorate
consisting of the Director, the Global Health Facilitator, the Research
Communications Officer, and the Global Health Executive Assistant. Oxford
Global Health is hosted and supported by the Medical Sciences Division and
this role will participate as part of the Research Strategy and Funding Team
in the Medical Sciences Divisional Office. However, Oxford Global Health is
charged with progressing the global health research across all academic
disciplines, and drive Oxford’s place at the forefront of global health and
innovation and so the post holder will operate across the full breadth of the
University.





This is available as a full-time position, initially on a fixed term contract
for 1 year, with the possibility of an extension. The team operates hybrid
working with time split between the MSD Office in the John Radcliffe Hospital,
in person with the Director of Global Health at the Oxford Martin School and
remote working. There would be the expectation to be on site approx. 3 days a
week. If offered on a part-time basis, the team can offer flexibility over the
exact hours and days worked.





Application Deadline: Monday 27th November 2023.





Interviews: Tuesday 5th December and Friday 8th December 2023. If successful
at first interview, you will be invited back to meet the Director of Global
Health.





To make informal enquiries about the post, please contact the Global Health
Facilitator, Jo Miller (joanna.miller@medsci.ox.ac.uk).
