Full job description

On the 1 August 2026, The University of Greenwich and the University of Kent will form a pioneering new multi-university group called London and South- East (LASE) University Group. Should you join us, you will be employed by LASE but will work as part of the University of Kent academic division, contributing to its distinct strengths, community and identity while also being part of a wider group that brings together the scale, resilience and shared ambition of both universities. Through LASE we aim to deliver outstanding education, impactful research, and meaningful regional and global impact.

Do you have experience coordinating complex projects and working with a wide range of stakeholders?

This part-time (0.6FTE) project management opportunity within the School of Social Sciences will see you contributing to an important research project exploring the socio-ethical implications of emerging science.

Supporting the delivery of the Wellcome-funded project, Care-full Synthesis: Advancing Global Engagement on the Socio-Ethical Implications of Synthesising Human Genomes, you will work closely with Professor Joy Y. Zhang to ensure the successful delivery of project activities through effective coordination, communication and project management.

As Project Manager you can expect to be involved in:

Supporting the delivery of project objectives and ensuring activities are completed to agreed timescales.
Coordinating communication and engagement with external partners, collaborators and research participants.
Managing project logistics, including events, travel arrangements and financial administration.
Liaising with internal departments to support the effective administration and governance of the project.

What will you bring to the role?

A recognised Project Management qualification (e.g. PRINCE2, APM), or equivalent relevant experience.
Experience of managing complex academic activities or projects.
Experience of working effectively with external partners and a range of internal stakeholders.
Excellent organisational, communication and problem-solving skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities.

What we can offer in return:

As a member of our team, you can expect a friendly, open and collaborative working environment and support in your development and wellbeing. You'll enjoy a range of great staff benefits including:

Hybrid working options allowing a flexible blend of office and home working (to be agreed in line with business needs)
43 days' leave per year (personal leave, bank holidays and additional days allocated for the Christmas period, pro rata for part-time staff)
Excellent pension scheme with generous employer contributions
Corporate employee-funded healthcare plan, in partnership with Benenden Health

We are ambitious for our people, our communities and the region we serve – join us in making the world a better place. Visit our website for more on who we are: http://www.kent.ac.uk/about/
