Translational Partnerships Manager - Global Health

The Translational Research Office (TRO) are looking to recruit a Translational
Partnerships Manager in Global Health at Oxford, UK. The TRO sits within the
Medical Sciences Division and supports early-stage translational programmes
with high potential for clinical, commercial and/or global impact in low-
middle income countries. The TRO assists Oxford employed academics and
clinicians in advancing their research discoveries, through appropriate
translational funding steps, on a long-term trajectory towards development
into new therapeutics, devices and clinical techniques.





The post-holder in this new role within the TRO will play a critical role in
understanding and mapping translational global health efforts of Oxford
academics based in Oxford and across the overseas research units. The post-
holder will strategically align researchers and forge new collaborations and
support their translational research programmes towards creating clinical
impact. Building relationships will be key as well as establishing an
excellent communication strategy to raise awareness of funding, resources,
expertise, infrastructure and translational support available to the network.
The post-holder is also expected to provide support in strategic capacity
building through training and development. This role requires a combination of
strategic vision, collaborative skills, and practical experience to foster
effective partnerships that can drive meaningful progress and maximise
potential to create impact in global health.





This is a fixed term post, initially for 24 months. The role is available as a
full time post, but candidates wishing to work part-time (at least 0.6
FTE/22.5 hours per week) are welcome to apply. The team operates hybrid
working with time split between the TRO Office in Boundary Brook House
(currently a minimum 1 day/week on Tuesdays) and remote working. If offered on
a part-time basis, the team can offer flexibility over the exact hours and
days worked.
