The Epilepsy Pathway Innovation in Africa (EPInA) project is a large NIHR multinational study that aims to improve the lives of people with epilepsy within Africa and beyond. Leveraging from this, the Oxford Martin Programme on Global Epilepsy aims to develop new and exciting culturally appropriate technology to help in the diagnosis, management and education of people with epilepsy and local communities. We will be working in Africa (Kenya, South Africa, Zimbabwe) as well as in Brazil and India. It is crucial to the success of both projects that there is true patient/carer engagement and that all technology driven research is culturally grounded. Research findings will need to be distilled into non-specialist language and visual material. Clear explanation of the studies, both during data gathering, and post-analysis will be essential to destigmatisation of epilepsy and maintaining relationships and partnerships with the local communities. The post-holder will oversee the Oxford Martin School project and also work very closely with the EPInA Team. They will be responsible for liaising with all of the sites, co-ordinating online and in person meetings, writing Grant Applications and reports and having day to day oversight of all components of the Oxford Martin School project. We also wish the appointee to work on communication across our work in global epilepsy as well as being instrumental in creating and distributing social media and more traditional media content. While the post will be based in Oxford, travel to sites is integral to the project as a whole. Responsibilities The main responsibility will be to work with the Principal Investigators (PIs) and all involved in the Oxford Martin Programme on Global Epilepsy to ensure that the project operates smoothly. There is also a clear need for optimal showcasing of work performed within the study to people with epilepsy, carers and their families. In more detail the role involves:  Principal responsibility for co-ordinating the research projects in 5 global sites.  Ensure that the projects adhere to relevant governance and Ethics Approvals  Ensure that all data are meticulously recorded in a clear and accessible way  Create and manage comprehensive databases  Liaise closely with the site teams, facilitating projects for the appointed local researchers  To update or modify protocols and all materials relating to ethics approvals as required  Monitoring research grants and ethics applications to support compliance with reporting.  Contribute to publications arising from this work.  Attend and, as appropriate, present research findings and papers at internal academic meetings and external professional conferences and contribute to the internal and external visibility of the department.  Help compile progress reports for the Oxford Martin School and ODA offices  Help organise regular meetings and teleconferences between the research team and collaborators  Receive, understand and communicate complex material of a specialist nature, orally and in writing.  Assist with preparing proposals and applications to external bodies for funding/ethical approval, and to internal and external bodies for governance.  Build local and international contacts  Participate in the exchange of information and form relationships for future collaboration  The post-holder is expected to commit to personal professional development by attending appropriate scientific seminars, training opportunities and meetings in the University.  Undertake other duties in the department from time to time as determined commensurate with the grade and responsibilities of this post, and any other reasonable request = Selection criteria Essential selection criteria         Educated to degree level or beyond Clear, demonstrable interest in global health with previous work and exposure to studies in resource poor settings Excellent planning and project management skills, with a proven ability to prioritise and meet deadlines Exemplary record-keeping and data collection skills Expertise with MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Access or equivalent software Ability to demonstrate initiative and to motivate others Knowledge of the modern media and online global landscape with insights into how the project can maximise its impact Enthusiastic, dynamic team player who will easily engage with multiple PIs in the UK and in resource poor settings.

We are looking for a dynamic and highly committed Project Manager with a passion for working in low to middle income countries to co-ordinate our study examining culturally contextualised technological solutions for people with epilepsy in resource poor settings. Epilepsy is one of the most common serious neurological conditions affecting around 50 million people worldwide. 80 to 85% of people with epilepsy live in low resource settings where access to accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment can be very limited. The lack of infrastructure and the deep stigmatisation of epilepsy further compound these difficulties. The Oxford Martin Programme on Global Epilepsy aims to tackle the diagnostic gap by building culturally contextualised technologies that can be delivered at scale. The eventual aim is empower primary health care workers to help streamline the care pathway for people who have seizures. The current role is instrumental in the delivery of our Oxford Martin Programme on Global Epilepsy. If appointed, you will be dedicated to ensuring the success of the project and be committed to improving the care of people with epilepsy worldwide. You will be co-ordinating a large, ambitious programme with multiple inter-locking workstreams. You will need to liaise with multiple partners across Brazil, Ghana, India, Kenya, South Africa, Tanzania, Zimbabwe – our core collaborating sites. You will also be working with Principal Investigators across multiple departments within University of Oxford. As such, time management, cultural sensitivity and the ability to deliver work on time and to a very high standard are mandatory requirements. You will need to have outstanding communication skills across all media and be keen to develop and deliver communication strategies for this and our other programmes in Global Epilepsy. Being a team player with an egalitarian approach and having clear regard for our international colleagues is essential.
