Research Support Administrator

at  University of Sheffield

The School of East Asian Studies is bound together by a passionate belief in the importance of East Asia as the most dynamic region in the world. We seek to communicate and disseminate our expertise and knowledge of this region across the University of Sheffield as well as nationally and internationally with the goal of impacting on the understanding and behaviour of a range of individuals, groups and organizations.
We aim to create ambitious, successful and highly employable students who are culturally agile, global citizens. Through innovative teaching and cutting-edge research, we seek to create a vibrant intellectual culture and to focus on important cross-cutting themes that break down boundaries between the study of China, Japan and Korea so that staff and students alike can achieve their full potential.
We aim to maintain our position as a leading East Asian Studies department in the UK, Europe and the world in terms of learning, teaching and research.
We have a unique opportunity for the right candidate to make a big difference in supporting the administrative activities of the Centre for Korean Studies within the School of East Asian Studies, funded by the Korean Studies Promotion Service Core Grant Programme.
The successful candidate will support and assist with the organisation of academic and public facing activities (conferences, workshops and other events), assist with logging the Centre’s activities and project reporting to the funder, and help manage the Centre’s online presence (social media and website).
