**About the University of Melbourne**
The University of Melbourne is consistently ranked amongst the leading universities in the world. The University is proud of its people, its commitment to research and teaching excellence, and its global engagement. Within the University, Research, Innovation and Commercialisation (RIC) is the central facilitator of research funding in the University, taking advantage of the full diversity of research funding opportunities. RIC operates University-wide across all ten Academic Divisions and Chancellery.

**About the Role**
As a member of the Innovation and Enterprise (I&E) portfolio of RIC, the Manager Major Initiatives is responsible for development and submissions in major, complex competitive grant programs including, but not limited to, CRC, ITRP and Centre of Excellence schemes. Leading a small, highly capable team, the role will work closely with lead researchers, Faculty stakeholders and RIC team members across the I&E and Major Initiatives, Contracts, Grants and Finance portfolios to effectively respond to major funding opportunities.
