Quadram Institute Bioscience are looking for a Director of Operations to join our Directorate Department.
Quadram Institute Bioscience was established with a clear vision — to understand how food and microbes interact to promote health and prevent disease. Today, Quadram Institute Bioscience is entering a new and exciting phase of growth. Our focus is now defined through our impact-driven framework, Healthy Living by Design, which aims to promote lifelong health by decoding the complex relationships between food, nutrition, microbes, microbiomes, and human biology — and translating this into practical, innovative solutions in partnership with clinicians, industry, and policy leaders.
Our research responds directly to the UK’s most pressing challenges:
* Rising rates of obesity and diet-related disease
* Increasing pressures on food systems from climate change, antimicrobial resistance, and global supply-chain fragility
Quadram Institute Bioscience, the research institute, operates as part of the broader Quadram Institute, a partnership that manages the building, the clinical research facility and the biorepository. Quadram Institute Bioscience, in close collaboration with University of East Anglia, Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, and the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), brings together scientists and clinicians within a state-of-the-art facility on the Norwich Research Park. This co-location enables integration of fundamental research, clinical translation, and innovation.
This is a really exciting time to join the institute following the recent appointment of Professor Daniel Figeys as Director. Reporting to the Director, the Director of Operations is responsible for the design, operation and delivery of Quadram Institute Bioscience/Quadram Institute operations and scientific services. The post holder will work closely with the Director and the Quadram Institute Bioscience/Quadram Institute Management Boards to deliver the operational strategy which is critical to the success of the Institute.
A competitive remuneration and benefits package is available commensurate with the successful applicant’s experience
