Summary of the role
We are seeking a part-time Project Coordinator to coordinate research and industrial activity and operations across an extensive critical minerals research centre led by Professor Frances Wall in the Camborne School of Mines. The project includes significant industry and civic partner engagement across SW England and its activities will help to implement the UK critical minerals strategy by accelerating commercialisation of projects for domestic production of critical minerals, and expanding the associated industry cluster that is already operating worldwide to enhance mineral production. It forms the core of a wider academic-industry University of Exeter initiative to form a Critical Minerals Centre of Excellence. Academic disciplines represented in this Centre include geology, mining and minerals engineering, sustainable finance, circular economy, social sciences and ecology, and this will grow as the Centre develops. The successful candidate for this position will be particularly interested in research and its applications, and will be a person who possesses excellent administrative and organisational skills and able to work with a range of people.
