Full Job Description

Make an impact at the University of Wollongong (UOW) - a purpose driven institution ranked in the top 1% of universities globally.

About the Role

This is a rare opportunity to lead a strategically important function at a university with a strong reputation for research excellence.

As Director, Research Services, you will provide leadership across the University's research funding and support ecosystem, helping to shape the services, systems and partnerships that enable research success. Reporting to the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research and Innovation), you will lead a multidisciplinary team spanning research funding, research support, commercial contracts, research systems and major bid development.

Working closely with senior leaders, researchers and external stakeholders, you will drive strategic initiatives, lead continuous improvement and ensure the University is well positioned to respond to emerging opportunities in the research landscape

About the Team

The Research Services Division sits within the Office of the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research and Innovation) and plays a critical role in supporting UOW's research community. The team works in partnership with faculties, researchers and professional services colleagues to provide integrated support across the research funding and project lifecycle.

With an ambitious research agenda and a strong commitment to service excellence, the division is focused on helping researchers navigate an increasingly complex funding landscape, build strong partnerships and maximise the impact of their work. It is a collaborative, high-performing environment where people are encouraged to think strategically, work together and continuously improve the services they deliver.

What You’ll Bring

You are a strategic and influential leader with a strong understanding of the research landscape and a proven ability to identify and capitalise on funding opportunities.
You bring a track record of building trusted relationships across complex stakeholder environments and are skilled at connecting institutional priorities with emerging opportunities in government, industry and research funding. Equally comfortable operating at a strategic and operational level, you can translate vision into action and inspire teams to deliver outstanding outcomes.

You will bring:

Senior leadership experience within a complex organisation, leading strategic initiatives and organisational improvement.
Experience developing and implementing strategies that drive growth, performance and organisational impact.
Demonstrated success building productive partnerships with funding agencies, industry, government or research organisations.
The ability to identify emerging trends and opportunities and position an organisation to maximise funding and strategic outcomes.
Exceptional communication, influencing and negotiation skills, with the credibility to engage senior leaders, researchers and external stakeholders.
Experience leading multidisciplinary teams through change while fostering a collaborative, accountable and high-performing culture.
Strong strategic judgement, commercial acumen and an understanding of governance, risk and compliance.
Knowledge of the Australian and international research funding landscape, including major funding programs and agencies, will be highly regarded.

Why Join UOW

Competitive salary package
35-hour full-time work week supporting greater balance and flexibility
Flexible working arrangements and family-friendly policies
Generous leave entitlements including additional concession days over the Christmas–New Year period
Purchased leave options to provide greater flexibility throughout the year
Ongoing professional development and clear career progression opportunities
