United Kingdom, Glasgow

Who we are

Great minds.  Innovative solutions.

We are the University of Strathclyde. Our vision is innovative and groundbreaking, placing us amongst the world’s leading international technological universities. We are vibrant, dynamic and passionate about solving the challenges facing society and industry through our cutting-edge, multi-disciplinary research, education and knowledge-exchange with global partners.

We are seeking to appoint extraordinary early career academics who complement our strategic themes.

For more information visit the Strathclyde Global Talent Programme Website: www.strath.ac.uk/workwithus/strathclydeglobaltalentprogramme or email globaltalent@strath.ac.uk 

Our department

The Department of Architecture was formally established in 1967, although the teaching of architecture at the origins of the technological institution started in late 1800s. The Department is among the oldest and largest in the UK and enjoys a distinguished international reputation with consistent high performance in league tables and exemplary student employment. The Department captures the University’s ethos as ‘the place of useful learning’ in its vision, mission, and standard pedagogical practice.

Operating at the intersection of art and design, culture and technology, engineering and society, in global and local contexts, our research and teaching addresses the environmental and societal challenges facing the built environment and places emphasis on the opportunities those challenges create. Its vision is to continue to be one of the world leading providers of education and research in sustainable architecture and urban design while contributing effectively to global society and to the welfare of the country. Such a vision is articulated in a mission that attempts to reflect the trans-disciplinary nature of architecture as a profession and as an academic discipline. Through a range of innovative approaches, the Department strives to:


	Produce global graduates who are well equipped and prepared to meet the needs and challenges of the bult environment in the 21st century.
	Enable students to acquire knowledge and skills and implement these in design and practice.
	Excel in design studio teaching and delivery of instruction while promoting a culture of scholarship and life-long learning.
	Create and disseminate knowledge through world class research, knowledge exchange and exemplary practice.
	Advance and apply professional knowledge and expertise through effective international partnerships and service to the profession and society at large.


Climate change, social deprivation as well as decarbonisation of the built environment continue to pose complex interdependent challenges. The design and use of buildings and cities continue to be a major source of not only carbon emissions but also impacts on public health. Interdisciplinary innovation and skills are needed to be developed at pace to deliver a net zero healthy built environment and smart, flexible energy system in line with UK net zero ambitions. The need to design and better manage use of buildings and urban environments to minimise carbon emissions whilst enhancing occupant’s health are now fundamental. We are looking for an early career researcher who is interesting in developing a portfolio of research in areas of health, energy and architecture and who is also able to use this knowledge to inform teaching and practice. We are particularly interested in candidates who have interdisciplinary skills, interest in sustainability innovation, regenerative approaches and nature inspired design.

This post will build on recent Departmental appointments to build substantial world leading expertise in this area in an area of strategic importance for the Institution and Society, and to contribute to the University of Strathclyde Vision 2025 strategy.

The opportunity

We would love to hear from you if you have a PhD and postdoctoral research experience; an emerging publication history in high quality academic journals; and research interests which align with this area of strategic priority – particularly if you already hold an external fellowship that can be transferred to us.

The University of Strathclyde is a socially progressive institution that strives to ensure equality of opportunity and celebrates the diversity of its student and staff community.  Strathclyde is people-oriented and collaborative, offering a supportive and flexible working culture with a deep commitment to our equality, diversity and inclusion charters, initiatives, groups and networks.

The Role and Department

The Research Operations Team is part of Research and Innovation Services (RIS) and provides comprehensive support to academic and PSS colleagues across the lifecycle of a research project. The team comprises pre- and post-award services, consultancy support, and systems implementation and development. Support includes tailored financial and contractual advice and management to all researchers at Durham, from planning, costing, and pricing the initial proposal to ensuring that contracts and agreements are negotiated effectively and efficiently to ensuring robust financial management and compliance of awarded projects. Research Operations works alongside the various teams which make up the Research and Innovation Services and in partnership with Professional Support colleagues across the University to help facilitate research-related planning, reporting and development and to meet the needs of both the individual researcher and the wider institution.

As a Research Grants and Contracts Manager (RGCM) you will play a key role in supporting and developing externally funded research grant activity by providing high quality support and advice to academic staff in the preparation, submission and contractual negotiation of research grants and awards. You will join an enthusiastic and supportive team of RGCMs based in the central office but will also be expected to spend time in the academic departments you support to provide a key link role between the academic community and RIS.

The RGCM will be first point of contact for an academic wishing to apply for external research funding and will provide support and expert advice in a number of key activities including:


	Identifying and disseminating funding opportunities.
	Delivering training and information events.
	Lay reviewing applications.
	Project managing the submission process of the bid (including responsibility for budget development and seeking internal approvals).
	Ensuring timely acceptance of successful awards including contract negotiation and ensuring all ethical and due diligence checks are completed.
	Working closely with post-award and contracting colleagues to ensure accurate project information is captured and shared in a central project management system.


It is essential that the RGCM is highly organised, pays close attention to detail, and has a pro-active approach to problem-solving. The capability to prioritise and manage a busy and varied workload is crucial. The ability to work across a number of concurrent projects at different stages of development is essential. A confident communicator, you will form close working relationships with the other members of the Operations Team, Research Development Team, Faculty Officials, Heads of Department, Directors of Research, Department Managers and other members of Professional Support Staff.

Subject to business need, the working pattern can be arranged to suit the successful applicant. Dependent on experience, the successful applicant may need to work on campus for the majority of the time for the first three months.
