The Kids Research Institute Australia is one of the largest and most successful medical research institutes in Australia.

With a bold blueprint that brings together community, researchers, practitioners, policy makers and funders, The Kids stands as one of the nation's leading child health research organisations. Our purpose is clear: to transform the lives of children through world-class research, innovation and translation. The health and wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and families is an overarching priority for the Institute, shaping the work and focus of every team.

The Kids has a longstanding track record of discovery and impact across areas including immunology, infectious diseases, brain development, mental health, and chronic diseases, helping to create healthier futures for children and families in Australia and beyond. In 2024, The Kids launched a strategy titled ‘Research Reimagined’, guiding the Institute’s focus for the ten years to 2035.

Following the announcement that Executive Director Professor Jonathan Carapetis AM will step down in 2026, we are now commencing the search for an exceptional leader to guide The Kids into the next chapter. This is a rare opportunity to influence the future of child health research and care in Australia, leading an organisation that connects discovery, clinical practice and the community.

We are seeking an influential and respected leader in medical or health research, someone with proven experience at scale, a strong track record of scientific achievement, and the leadership and strategic capabilities needed to steer a large, complex, high performing organisation. The ideal candidate will bring the standing and credibility, to represent The Kids nationally and internationally while advancing an already significant legacy.

Equally important is a leadership style grounded in collaboration, purpose and impact. The next Director will nurture and inspire research talent, build strong partnerships across academic, clinical, government and philanthropic sectors, and with the community, helping to create an environment where teams, ideas and innovation can thrive.

Our ambitious Education Strategy sets out the actions that we must take to transform how we teach, how and where our students learn and how we support them during their time with us.

The Student Transition and Outcomes Department works to address the sector-wide and institutional factors and barriers that contribute to lower rates of attainment, continuation and progression for students at King’s. We work collaboratively across the King’s community to provide an inclusive student experience, with a focus on traditionally underrepresented student groups.

We are part of the Students & Education Directorate, a collection of wide-ranging professional services in place to support King’s students and their education.

We encourage applications from candidates who have experience from both within and outside of the Higher Education sector where they can demonstrate the skills needed to succeed in this role. 

This is a full-time post (35 hours per week) and you will be offered an indefinite contract. We support flexible working arrangements, and work in a hybrid way, with a current minimum requirement to be on campus every Thursday.

About you:

To be successful in this role, we are looking for candidates to have the following skills and experience:

	Excellent interpersonal skills, with the ability to communicate and distribute information clearly.
	Take responsibility for your own learning and development, including continuous engagement with developments related to Priority Group students.
