Great ideas do not discriminate, and anyone can have them. Given the right protection and support, a great idea can become a transformative technology, a powerful brand, an innovative process or design, or even a song or story that moves someone’s soul.

At IPOS, we drive Singapore’s future growth with our IP expertise and networks. We are an innovation agency that helps enterprises use their intangible assets (IA) and IP for growth, from Singapore and through Singapore. Working together with other economic agencies, we help transform the ideas of today into the assets of tomorrow.

Join a dynamic team of officers that helps the IPOS family understand and engage its stakeholders and customers in a timely and pro-active manner. The Partnership and Programme Department (PPD) does this though various platforms, programmes and activities for the innovation community.

Responsibilities

Reporting to Deputy Director, PPD, your responsibilities include:

1. Supporting the Policy and Engagement Cluster’s Programme Unit. The Unit provides administrative and logistical support for the entire cluster’s activities, such as helping with key internal meetings and IPOS flagship events, i.e. IP Week @ SG.
2. Maintaining existing and identifying new strategic partnerships to build a vibrant innovation community. This may include planning and executing engagement activities, either directly or via partner associations and/or organisations.
3. Developing programmes for IPOS to create networks and drive the innovation community. This will typically entail working with other departments and external parties to deliver the programmes.
4. Contributing to other stakeholder engagement activities such as taking on ad hoc engagement initiatives as well as other duties related to the department and/or IPOS.

Are you the one? Please write to us if you:
