About This Opportunity
The Australian Research Council (ARC) Centre of Excellence (COE) in Quantum Biotechnology () is a nationally funded research Centre within the School of Mathematics and Physics.

The membership of our advisory bodies includes two Nobel Laureates and Australia's past Chief Scientist.
At QUBIC we seek to develop quantum technologies that go far beyond what is possible today, from portable brain imagers to super-fast single protein sensors, and to use them to unravel key problems including how enzymes catalyse reactions and how higher brain function emerges from networks of neurons.
QUBIC is seeking to appoint a Chief Operating Officer (COO), known locally as Deputy Director, Strategy and Operations, as an integral member of the senior leadership team to lead the Centre's national operations. The role will be responsible for high-level strategic, operational and performance planning to enable the Centre to achieve its ambitious research goals and objective and to create broad impact through its training, outreach, equity and translation programs.
As the CoE COO you will manage a focused team with responsibility for the smooth administrative operations of the Centre and provide virtual leadership to local node administrators at UoM, UTS, UoW and FLD. You will work closely with the Centre's national executive team and liaise with Centre node leaders, chief investigators, partner investigators, associate investigators, research fellows, postgraduate students, partners and other stakeholders including large and small businesses, government agencies, funding bodies and community partners.
This role is subject to The University's .
About You
We are seeking an individual with demonstrated exceptional leadership and management skills that will enable the Centre to further develop and realise a vision built on partner engaged and high-impact research.
The successful applicant will have a postgraduate qualification, or equivalent education or training, in a relevant discipline in conjunction with extensive experience in leadership and management in the university, government, not for profit or industry sectors.
Extensive knowledge of issues affecting research funding in Australia especially in relation to government, industry and philanthropic funding sources, is highly regarded. As well as extensive experience in strategic planning, operations and resource management, finance and budget administration, and corporate governance within a complex organisation.
