Executive Director of the Centre for Science and Policy

Closing date 12pm, 11 June 2012

The University of Cambridge Judge Business School seeks an Executive Director to lead the Centre for Science and Policy (CSaP) through its continued development as a world-class centre promoting networking and knowledge exchange between researchers and policy makers, professional development, and research into the role of science in policy making.

Over the last three years, CSaP has established itself as a meeting-point between policy professionals (from both government and industry) and leading researchers from the physical, biological and social sciences and from engineering. Through its highly regarded fellowships, workshops and other programmes, it has created many strong and enduring connections based on increased mutual understanding and respect. CSaP is part of a wider initiative known as Cambridge Public Policy (CPP), which co-ordinates, promotes and supports public policy research and training across the University, including the new MPhil in Public Policy that will launch in 2013.

The Executive Director will provide leadership, innovation, planning and delivery, working with senior policy makers and academics, and leading a small professional team. He or she will work with the Founding Director and the Head of Development on a continuing programme to raise additional funds, thereby growing the Centre into a self-sustaining unit providing ongoing input from the sciences and engineering into policy.

The post is initially for a three year period. Consideration may be given to candidates available on secondment or "loan" from government departments for a limited period.

A competitive benefits package will be offered.

First interviews will take place on the afternoon of Thursday 21 June and the morning of Friday 22 June. Second and final interviews will be held on Thursday 28 June.
