Do you have research experience, preferably in health or bioscience, and want to be an important player in the administration and development of a dynamic and well functioning research center? Then it is you we need on the team.
Copenhagen Prospective Studies on Asthma in Childhood (COPSAC) is an internationally recognized research center of about 60+ employees who use clinical mother-child cohorts to uncover the causes of childhood disorders. Our main focus is asthma, allergy, and eczema, but we are currently expanding the focus to related disorders, including overweight/dysmetabolism and psycopathology/cognition.
It is characteristic for COPSAC that we work as one entity with a common goal. We appreciate team players, and in return, you will be part of a “family” of talented, helpful and great colleagues. We have a fantastic work environment, characterized by good humor and an informal tone.
One of your main tasks will be taking responsibility for our funding activities including identifying relevant funding opportunities, planning the grant process, reaching out to collaborators, and helping write up the grants together with our skilled researchers. It is therefore important that you have the talent and interest in grant writing.
You will work closely together with the management team, and senior and junior researchers, and will be part of our “researech engine room”, which currently consists of four dedicated administrative postdocs/employees who share responsibilities for collaboration agreements, finances, IT, legal, websites, HR, and communication.
Your Profile
- You're curious and passionate, excited to be at the forefront where research makes a difference. You can work independently, seek new opportunities, and analyse the consequences of different action plans.
- You communicate clearly at a high professional level and understand the requirements for grant applications. You're good at creating new relationships.
- You have a relevant PhD degree and preferably a year or more of postdoc experience. It will be an advantage with experience within one of our main focus areas, including immunology, asthma, obesity or psychopathology, but this is not a must.
- You love research and are good at administration but don't want to pursue your own research carreer. Instead, we offer you the chance to continue your research commitment in a more administrative position in a well-established group.
You'll play a crucial role as an administrative postdoc in a strong international research environment. COPSAC is evolving, you will be part of shaping its future by developing the research strategy and identifying and pursuing strategic possibilities. You'll work in a team of colleagues who are passionate about their work and proud of their results. The research group attracts international attention, and the field enjoys significant public interest.
As an administrative postdoc at COPSAC, you will:
- Be involved in grant applications, reports, manuscripts, and other communications of research findings
- Handle administrative tasks related to collaborations, reviews, and approvals
- Bring your interests and experience from relevant fields and thereby contribute to shaping the research center
We have high ambitions with plenty of room for sparring and for professional development.
COPSAC covers a range of research topics and is currently developing it’s research scope. Therefore, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to develop your existing research skills in line with our strategic ambitions, as well acquiring knowledge in new research areas. This includes possibilitis for participation in scientific congresses and visits to other research institutions.
Development of administrative skills will be possible through relevant courses.
