Institute for Biomedicine and Glycomics - Griffith's flagship investment in the future of bioscience
Griffith University has a strong history of world-leading biomedical and glycomics research. We are proud of our track record of translating and commercialising discovery science towards new therapies, vaccines and diagnostics for diseases of global impact and unmet need. In 2024, Griffith is forging a transformative new chapter for biomedical research by bringing together its formidable strengths within a new Institute for Biomedicine and Glycomics.
Headquartered on Queensland's beautiful Gold Coast, the Institute benefits from its proximity to and engagement with the Gold Coast Health and Knowledge Precinct and the Gold Coast University Hospital (along with other Hospital and Health Service providers), the University's partnership in the newly established Sanofi Translational Science Hub, and its significant scale in partnerships and alliances in Queensland, Australia and globally. The founding institutes also benefit from significant philanthropic support.
The University vision for the Institute for Biomedicine and Glycomics is of a flagship that brings together the talent, infrastructure and support framework required to accelerate toward the next level of biomedical discovery, translation, and impact.
About the University
Ranked in the top 2% of universities worldwide, Griffith is a values-led organisation that prides itself on its outstanding student experience, highly impactful research, commitment to social justice and a welcoming environment that values excellence, equity, diversity, and innovation. As Griffith approaches its 50th anniversary in 2025, we remain focused on being a leading university of influence and impact.
About the opportunity
The new role of Executive Director, Institute for Biomedicine and Glycomics is further recognised through the co-appointment to the prestigious Raymond James Chair of Translational Biomedicine. Reporting to the Deputy Vice Chancellor (Research), the inaugural Executive Director will draw together and leverage Griffith University's research strengths and partnerships and lead the Institute in the discovery, development, and translation of solutions for global health problems. The Executive Director is responsible for fostering a collaborative, interdisciplinary research environment where Institute members strive to deliver real world impacts of the highest quality, via broad engagement with academic, industry, government, and community stakeholders.
In line with the University Strategy, the Executive Director will lead the integration of Griffith's biomedical strengths and lead a culture of high performing research excellence and exceptional future researchers' training, to accelerate biomedical discovery and develop innovations and translational benefits to create a brighter future for all.
About you
