The UK Young Academy is an interdisciplinary membership organisation, launched in June 2022, that provides a voice to individuals who are early in their career and are passionate and enthusiastic about driving societal change. The UK Young Academy is currently supported operationally by the Royal Society.
The Society is recruiting a UK Young Academy Assistant to support the UK Young Academy’s staff team to deliver a varied programme of work that ultimately enables its members to achieve their aims and engages the organisation’s key audiences and networks. This is an exciting opportunity to work with a newly established organisation and help it to reach its full potential. We are seeking a strong team player with excellent planning and administration skills, good attention to detail and an interest in interdisciplinary working and collaboration across different sectors.
Core parts of the role will support the team in the planning and implementation of the annual call for membership applications, assisting potential applicants and referees to complete the application process and engaging with different organisations to promote the call, as well as coordinating the processing of financial reimbursements and payments for the UK Young Academy’s activities. The successful candidate will also undertake a variety of other tasks, such as handling day-to-day queries and coordinating the preparations and logistics for some of the Young Academy’s events and work programmes. The candidate will therefore need to be proactive, with the ability to work under pressure and manage a varied and diverse workload.
The role will report to the Programme Manager who is responsible for the operational management of the Young Academy. Activities will take place at the Royal Society’s offices in Carlton House Terrace in central London, at partner national Academy locations across the UK or delivered virtually.
Please note that we are unable to offer sponsorship for this role.
