This is a role for someone who enjoys connecting people and ideas.

Throughout it all, you’ll help keep the experiences of people affected by dementia at the centre of our work.

You’ll be part of a team working to make dementia research more connected, visible and impactful. You’ll build relationships across the research community and work closely with colleagues across the Society to help share the difference our funded research is making.

In this role, you will:
- Manage a portfolio of funded research projects and partnerships, helping them deliver meaningful impact.
- Build strong relationships with researchers, clinicians, partners and colleagues across the organisation.
- Support the tracking and sharing of research outcomes and impact.
- Spot opportunities for future funding, collaboration and partnership working.
- Help communicate research in ways that are clear, engaging and accessible.
- Represent Alzheimer’s Society at meetings, workshops and conferences.
About you
You’re someone who enjoys working with people, bringing ideas together and helping things move forward. You’re organised and thoughtful, and comfortable managing different priorities while keeping sight of the bigger picture.

- Experience managing or coordinating multiple projects or programmes with different timelines and priorities.
- The ability to explain complex or technical information in a clear and accessible way.
- Strong relationship building skills and experience working with a wide range of people.
