About The Job

Dementia is the greatest health challenge of our century.

To date there is no way to prevent it or even slow its progression, and there is an urgent need to fill the knowledge gap in our basic understanding of the diseases that cause it.

The UK Dementia Research Institute (UK DRI) is the biggest UK initiative driving forward research to fill this gap.

The mission of the UK DRI at the University of Cambridge, led by Professor Mina Ryten, is to create a collaborative, inter-disciplinary Centre that combines world-leading expertise across cell biology, chemistry, transcriptomics and genetics to understand the mechanisms driving neurodegeneration.

The overall purpose of the role is to develop, maintain and deliver administrative polices and processes for the UK Dementia Research Institute in Cambridge to ensure the smooth running of its research activities, and its integration with both the wider UK Dementia Research Institute and the Department of Clinical Neurosciences of the University of Cambridge. This will involve meeting coordination at the centre level, event planning for the centre and group leaders, financial processing/assistance for the Centre manager, organisation of travel arrangements, and general administrative duties essential to the smooth operation of the centre.

Person Criteria

The successful candidate will collaborate closely with the other UK DRI Centres, supporting the Centre Manager and Laboratory Supervisor as needed, as well as the Department of Clinical Neurosciences (University of Cambridge). The role requires a proactive approach, the ability to work independently under pressure, and particularly strong organisational skills.
