Each year Arup Research Programme invests in approximately 200 research projects engaging close to 200 external collaborators. You will be working across project teams to drive research value and impact through advice, training, practical tools and by fostering an impact culture. This position is based in Singapore, Melbourne, or Brisbane, with flexible working arrangements available to support a collaborative and inclusive working environment.

• Guide and support researchers to maximise the value and societal impact of their work, from project design to delivery.
• Collaborate to produce shared resources, training and communications, working closely with learning and marketing and communication teams to ensure a consistent and coherent approach to understanding and amplifying research impact across Arup.

• Experience leading the development and delivery of research impact strategies and frameworks in large complex organisations.

• Demonstrated ability to provide advice, training, and practical support to Arup researchers (ideally in an industry setting) to increase value and impact of their research.
• Exceptional interpersonal skills to establish productive working relationships and networks with stakeholders at all levels of seniority across large global organisations.
