Manager, Research Operations and Partnerships

Research is growing more complex—and great research needs strong operations behind it. As the Manager, Research Operations and Partnerships, you’ll help turn research opportunities into well-supported, sustainable initiatives.

Reporting to the Director, Office of Research Partnerships and Innovation (ORPI), you’ll work closely with Principal Investigators, Lab Directors, research teams, University partners, and external organizations to build the processes, partnerships, and operational frameworks that enable research to grow. From contracts and project planning to financial oversight, risk management, and data governance, you’ll connect the pieces to help research teams operate effectively and responsibly.
