    This role is based within the Research, Enterprise and Scholarship Team in the Faculty of Business and Law.

    The key focus of the team is to support the growth of research, knowledge exchange, scholarship and commercial activity as well as partnership building initiatives to diversify income, provide effective service to academics and enhance reputation.
