About the Role
Build meaningful partnerships between universities and one of the UK’s most ambitious health research programmes. Our Future Health is creating a research platform with the potential to support discoveries that improve health for generations to come. We’re looking for a proactive partnerships professional to help more academic researchers make use of that platform and turn promising ideas into practical, valuable collaborations. You’ll help build our research partnerships function, leading relationships with universities and academic institutions. You’ll develop and refine ways for institutions and researchers to work with Our Future Health, then work with colleagues across the organisation to bring those models to life. This is a role for someone who can think strategically and deliver in practice: listening to partners, spotting opportunities, shaping partnership offers and coordinating the work needed to launch and improve them.

- Lead active schemes for academic researchers, tracking engagement and impact to understand value and improve offerings.
- Build strong relationships with universities, researchers, and senior academic stakeholders.
- Work closely with internal teams to support university engagement and recruitment activity.
- Represent Our Future Health externally, communicating research ambition and partnership opportunities.
- Shape a partnership offer, support its early delivery, and use evidence and feedback to guide its development.
- Manage connected workstreams effectively while remaining adaptable.
- Work collaboratively with teams such as Marketing, Legal, and Product on complex partnership programmes.
Requirements
- Experience developing and managing partnerships with universities, research organisations, or innovation partners.
