An exciting opportunity has arisen to work
within the School of Philosophical, Anthropological and Film Studies Research Team
as a Senior Research Administrator at the University of St Andrews. The post will take leadership for a range of
activities within the School Research Team, support the overall delivery of
research administration across the School of Philosophical, Anthropological and
Film Studies and be the lead administrator for the COST project
(interdisciplinary research network that brings researchers and innovators
together from across Europe).
The role holder will be flexible and be able to
prioritise the needs of students, academics and the School. They will process excellent team and
relationship management skills, sound judgement and effective problem-solving
