About the position

We are offering an exciting managerial role within an international research environment, where you will have the opportunity to enhance our research community. The role is split into two main areas: as the Executive Director for GaPP and as the Administrative Manager for SIR. These roles are allocated approximately 50/50.

In your position, you will be part of a small, dynamic team that supports researchers and drives both operational and strategic initiatives. We are looking for a highly skilled individual who can balance strategic thinking with strong administrative capabilities. Depending on the applicant's qualifications, the focus of the role can be tailored more towards organizational development or administrative management.

Responsibilities:

  1. Build, develop, and carry out administrative tasks for both GaPP and SIR.
  2. Drive strategic development for the organizations, focusing on administrative processes as well as organizational strategy. This includes high-level meetings with external stakeholders such as donors and top decision makers.
  3. Lead a small team at GaPP, consisting of communicators, event staff, and outreach coordinators.
  4. Oversee administration of research projects and funding applications, including budgeting and financial management for both Swedish and international projects. This involves regular meetings with researchers and project teams.
  5. Coordinate public seminars, conferences, and other outreach activities hosted by GaPP and SIR.
  6. For applicants with an interest in university teaching, we can also allocate time for pedagogy development.

Your Profile:

This role requires an independent and proactive individual who thrives in a fast-paced, ambitious academic environment with high standards. You will need to work at a strategic level while keeping a keen eye for operational details. The ability to multitask is essential, as no two days will be the same. Given the nature of the role, you must also be service-minded, as you will interact with various stakeholders across the organization. You should be organized, flexible, and efficient, ensuring tasks are completed with accuracy and attention to detail.

Requirements:

  1. Previous work experience in administration, ideally within university, research administration, NGOs or other vital societal functions.
  2. A genuine interest in supporting and understanding research.
  3. Project management skills.
  4. Proficient in English.

Meritorious:

  1. Swedish language proficiency.
  2. A PhD in a relevant field, or equivalent, with a strong academic foundation.
  3. International experience.
  4. Experience within academic institutions such as SSE or similar.
  5. Prior experience in a research support role.
  6. Familiarity with administering EU-funded projects and/or other international research projects.

This is a full-time position based in Stockholm, the employment will start with a six-month probationary period.
