PREVIOUS APPLICANTS NEED NOT APPLY

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Research Grants Manager to join the Nuffield Department of Medicine’s Grant Management Team, one of the largest and most complex research portfolios in Oxford. This role sits at the heart of the Department’s research operations, supporting world-leading scientists by managing the full lifecycle of research funding—from application through to award management and close-out. Working within a collaborative professional services environment, you will play a key role in ensuring that research projects are delivered in line with funder requirements while supporting the continued growth and success of the Department’s research portfolio.

You will be responsible to manage day-to-day grant administration, including pre-award activities such as preparing and accurately costing grant applications using the University’s costing tool (currently X5) and ensuring compliance with funder terms and University policies. You will oversee post-award activities, including monitoring budgets, analysing expenditure, preparing reports, and liaising with Research Accounts, collaborators, and other departments. You will provide guidance to grant holders, support audits and financial reporting, and escalate any issues to senior staff when necessary. You will also support training of Grants Officers, Apprentices, and other team members, and contribute to the development of information management systems to improve grant administration across the department.

It is essential that you hold a degree or equivalent, with strong knowledge of grants or contracts, preferably in higher education. You will need experience in financial administration, interpreting policies, and managing budgets, with high attention to detail and strong numeracy skills. Excellent interpersonal skills, the ability to work independently and as part of a team, and confidence using IT systems, including Microsoft Office, are essential. Experience using a costing tool, working with industry partners, or using financial software such as Oracle or X5 is desirable. You will be organised, proactive, and able to prioritise multiple tasks to meet deadlines, with a proven ability to build effective working relationships with colleagues at all levels.

This position is offered full time on a permanent basis and is funded by department.

Only applications received before 12 midday on Friday 19 June 2026 will be considered. Please quote 185906 on all correspondence.
