The post holder will provide a comprehensive service to the research and postgraduate community, making the full range of research outputs across the University available through the institutional research repository (ePrints) and research management system (PURE). A key element of the role is making judgements that ensure individual outputs are within the scope as required by various external stakeholders, including Research England's open access policy for REF2021 and future REF exercises. The post holder will resolve enquiries from researchers and external users of the repository globally. The post holder will be required to manage the end of day process independently, which will require attention to detail, and confidence in routines. Confidence and an ability to pick up skills quickly are desirable, as is previous experience managing research information systems. A detailed understanding of referencing, bibliographic data and publishing practices would be helpful.
