    Utilising individual and organisational thought leadership, we will deliver a step change in the approach to how materials are produced, used, and recycled, and make them more environmentally, economically, and socially sustainable. Together, Centre partners will empower diverse and interdisciplinary teams to co-create fundamental and transformative research programmes to the benefit of society. The Centre is underpinned by a $150 million investment by Rio Tinto over 10 years.

    As Centre Manager, you will work with the Imperial Centre Co-Director to ensure the successful development of all aspects of the Centre, lead on the overall operational management, and support effective governance and delivery of the Centre's vision.

  • Manage and develop the Centre's support staff team to ensure optimum support for the delivery of the centre's objectives.
  • Champion a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement.
  • Consider Equality Diversity and Inclusion elements within the Centre.

    • Full information on duties, responsibilities and criteria can be found in the Job Description.
