With a strong research track record, vibrant campus and working environments, supported by the freedom to innovate and inspire, there is no better time to join Western Australia’s top university.

**About the team**
The National Imaging Facility (NIF) is a multi-million-dollar project providing state-of-the-art imaging capability for the Australian research community, as part of the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) framework.

UWA hosts the WA node of the National Imaging Facility (WA NIF) within the Centre for Microscopy, Characterisation and Analysis (CMCA), the principal research infrastructure centre at UWA. The CMCA comprises a team of academic, research, technical and administrative staff supporting a diverse range of instrument platforms.

The WA NIF Node is located on the 3rd floor of the Harry Perkins Institute of Medical Research on the QEII Medical Centre campus. WA NIF aims to provide an open access platform to all researchers and investigators, offering research imaging infrastructure for preclinical and human imaging. The WA NIF Node recently underwent a major expansion, introducing state-of-the-art human 3T MRI and digital PET-CT systems, thereby making the node the first dedicated research imaging facility in the state.

Under direction, the General Manager will also take responsibility for fostering a customer-focused perspective and ensuring a strong commitment to high organisational service standards.

To be considered for this opportunity, you will demonstrate:

- Relevant tertiary qualification or demonstrated equivalent competency.
- Demonstrated medical imaging experience in an established public or private health service environment (radiology and/or nuclear medicine) will be highly regarded.
- Demonstrated experience in effective clinical and business management and practices, implementing effective administrative systems and practices, and ability to identify risks and gaps in service provision.

- Experience in contract negotiation and developing partnerships.
- Excellent and collaborative interpersonal, networking, negotiation, written and verbal communication skills including the ability to develop and maintain effective working relationships with all levels of stakeholders to achieve desired outcomes.
- Demonstrated ability to work independently, show initiative, and exercise judgement.
