Description
Communications Officer


One of Europe's leading nutritional health research bodies, the Rowett Institute at the University of Aberdeen, is recruiting a Communications Officer to play a key role in raising the profile of the institute at national and international level.

The post will build on the Rowett's long history of impact on government policy from helping to inform the second world war food rationing system to providing the science for the introduction of free school milk.

Scientists at the Institute also work closely with governments to develop policies and strategies to improve nutrition.

One of our former directors, Philip James, played a significant role in setting up the Food Standards Agency in the UK.

Today the Institute works closely with the Environment, Natural Resources & Agriculture at the Scottish Government.
