Queensland University of Technology (QUT) is seeking a Research Grants Specialist to join Office of Research Services, Research Portfolio, Academic Division.

We’re offering this role as a hybrid position as part of QUT’s commitment to embracing the opportunities created by a more virtual and connected world.

**Real world impact**

QUT is a major Australian university with a global outlook and a 'real world' focus. We are an ambitious and collaborative institution that seeks to equip our students and graduates with the skills they will need in an increasingly disrupted and challenged world.

**About the Research Portfolio**
QUT has experienced the strongest, sustained research growth of any university in the sector over the last ten years. The scale and complexity of research at QUT has reached a level that requires enhanced processes and resources to support the University’s research community in meeting its aspirations and compliance obligations.

The Research Portfolio provides high quality support and training and conducts compliance and reporting across a range of obligations at an organisational level in an environment of dynamic growth in cross institutional collaborations.

The Portfolio is comprised of five units including Research Strategy and Policy, Research Infrastructure, Sustainability Strategy, Office of Research Services and Office of Research Ethics and Integrity.

**Research Infrastructure (RI)** delivers coordinated University-wide research infrastructure capabilities through distinct research facilities. In collaboration with internal and external partners, the unit acquires, facilitates access to, develops, and manages world-class research infrastructure capabilities.

**Sustainability Strategy **advises the University on sustainability strategy, planning, policy, and partnerships and supports the Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Vice-President (Research) in pursuing major research initiatives in the sustainability space. The Pro Vice-Chancellor’s Office also champions and coordinates education for sustainability at QUT in collaboration with the Education Portfolio and supports sustainability programs linked to QUT’s operations.

**Office of Research Services (ORS) **works with QUT staff, students, collaborators, and partners to identify, attract and manage funding from competitive and commercial sources. The Office also manages the University’s research management platforms and coordinates internal and external research reporting.

**Office of Research Ethics and Integrity (OREI)** supports researchers by providing education, guidance, process and advice for research ethics, biosafety and responsible research practices to embed a high quality research culture at the University.
