We are seeking an experienced, organised and proactive Project Manager to support the EPSRC AgriFoRwArdS Centre for Doctoral Training. Reporting to the CDT Director, you will oversee the day-to-day running of the programme, coordinating activities across academic, industry and student partners, managing budgets and reporting, and ensuring milestones and deadlines are met.
You will act as the main point of contact for students, supervisors and external partners, organise events and training activities, and help ensure the smooth operational delivery of this exciting doctoral training programme. Strong organisational, communication and stakeholder management skills are essential, along with the ability to work independently and manage multiple priorities. Given the project is running only until September 2027, the postholder will have to hit the ground running and have experience in running a multi-site CDT .
This is a fantastic opportunity to play a central role in a dynamic, multidisciplinary research training centre at the University of Lincoln, with partners at the University of Cambridge and East Anglia.
In support of our commitment to developing colleagues by providing opportunities for internal movement and promotion, applications for this opportunity will only be accepted from people who are currently employed by the University of Lincoln, our current students, and any currently engaged agency workers who have been with us for more than 12 weeks. We actively encourage applications from all colleagues across the University with the relevant skills and experience.
