The Jean Golding Institute (JGI) (www.bristol.ac.uk/golding) is a University Research Institute (URI) supporting interdisciplinary research in data science and AI. We support researchers with funding for seed corn projects, networking opportunities as well as data science support. The JGI also manages the relationship with The Alan Turing Institute, the UK Institute for data science and AI (www.turing.ac.uk), that brings together experts from academia, industry, and government to tackle complex societal problems.

The post holder will develop and manage relationships with key stakeholders across sectors and organisations and seek to develop new collaborative initiatives that benefit the University and aim to create new programmes of research. The role holder will be expected to attend meetings at Turing HQ based in the British Library periodically.
The role is currently funded until July 2025, however, the partnership will be renewed then and it is highly likely that the role will continue.
