ABOUT THE ROLE

Imperial College London has secured three years of Research England Development (RED) funding to provide support to climate innovations that are ready to scale. This project – the Climate Scaling Collaborative – includes partners from the universities of Cranfield, Derby, Exeter, Leeds and Nottingham, as well as agreements to collaborate with a number of external partners.
The project will focus on IP-rich university start-ups and spinouts with deep technology-based solutions for climate mitigation and adaptation. Encompassing hardware, software and hybrid solutions, the project will support climate-focused businesses across a broad range of industrial verticals. Over the initial RED Fund period, this support will reach 60 startups initiated within the UK higher education eco-system - from partner institutions and beyond. Through founder networking events, the project will engage with a further 120 UK businesses. Each regional partner will host events to showcase prototyping and manufacturing facilities and develop collaborations with local investors, policy groups and relevant businesses. The project includes work packages to deliver investment support, manufacturing advice, talent and governance navigation, business development support and peer networking.
We are looking for a talented Marketing and Communications Coordinator to help us deliver the programme, working closely with the team across all partner institutions to raise awareness and build the reputation of the Climate Scaling Collaborative. You will be part of a creative, energetic and passionate team who see an important role for universities in supporting science- and engineering-based innovation to tackle some of the world’s most pressing challenges.
You will be responsible for devising and executing recruitment campaigns for the programme, as well as promoting the successes of the initiative to internal and external audiences.
