If you can demonstrate strong experience in media relations, corporate communications and/or content management, and have a passion for science, then this is the role for you! You will take the next step in your career with a University known to be an exciting and rewarding place to work and you will be provided with opportunities to immerse yourself in some of the world-leading initiatives that we lead.
