Salary: £26,301 to £26,600 Pro Rata Per Annum

We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced senior leader to join the Â鶹´«Ã½ on a six-month fixed-term basis as Director of Research Infrastructure & Facilities.

Reporting directly to the Pro-Vice-Chancellor Research, you will provide strategic leadership across the University's research infrastructure and facilities estate, connecting our research ambitions to the physical, technical and financial foundations that make them possible.

This is a role where your impact will be immediate and visible. You will work closely with Deans, the Executive Director of Innovation and Enterprise, and key professional services colleagues to ensure our research infrastructure is coherent, sustainable, and fit for the future. You will also engage with national research networks and major funders to position Bath competitively for capital investment.

Alongside strategic oversight, you will lead on a number of live, complex operational projects, including the careful management of facility transitions and campus consolidation, where sound judgement, stakeholder sensitivity and the ability to deliver are essential.

About Your Ideal Candidate

You are an experienced Director-level leader who understands how universities work and knows how to get things done within them. You do not need to be a technical research specialist, but you do need to genuinely understand why research infrastructure and facilities matter and how to champion them effectively.

You will bring:

• Proven Director-level experience, as this role requires someone who has already operated at this level rather than someone stepping into it for the first time
• A strong understanding of the higher education environment, so you can navigate institutional complexity, build trust quickly, and influence without direct authority
• Operational delivery capability, meaning you are comfortable rolling up your sleeves and leading complex, sensitive processes to a successful conclusion
• Experience managing facilities, estates or infrastructure in a large, multi-stakeholder organisation
• Excellent stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to work across academic, professional services and external partner communities with credibility and confidence

This is a six-month fixed-term position. We are looking for someone who can make an early impact and provide stability and leadership during a period of significant activity.

For an informal conversation about the role, please get in touch with Kira Walker (Talent Advisor) talent-advisor-2@bath.ac.uk. However, all applications must be submitted through the university's website.

Closing Date: 01 May 2026

Department: Management, Specialist and Administration

Salary: £31,236 to £37,694

Role

The Digital Portfolio Director will lead the Â鶹´«Ã½’s Digital Foundations Portfolio—a £20–30 million, five-year transformational programme that underpins the University’s strategic priorities and impacts every department and function. This is a rare opportunity to define and deliver digital transformation at scale, shaping how technology, people, and processes come together to create a connected, innovative, and future-ready institution.

In this role, you will:

• Set the vision and operating model for digital transformation, building frameworks and governance from the ground up.
• Lead a complex portfolio spanning research computing, education technology, student and staff experience platforms, and foundational infrastructure.
• Drive measurable benefits, ensuring projects deliver tangible improvements to staff and student experiences.
• Engage senior leadership and stakeholders, managing relationships across diverse groups and key third-party partners such as Infosys.
• Champion cultural change, embedding new ways of working, building organisational capability, and fostering innovation.

This is not a traditional portfolio management role—it requires a visionary leader who thrives on complexity, combines strategic thinking with hands-on delivery, and is passionate about making a real difference. You will have the autonomy to shape what good looks like, influence the University’s digital future, and position Bath as a sector leader in digital transformation.

About You

You are a strategic leader with hands-on delivery experience, passionate about driving complex change and digital transformation. You have a proven track record of designing and delivering organisation-wide change programmes in large, complex environments, underpinned by expert knowledge of best practice in change management. Your background spans both digital and change projects, where you have managed multiple concurrent initiatives with intricate interdependencies and diverse stakeholders. You combine strategic vision with operational agility—setting direction while actively engaging in delivery, removing blockers and accelerating progress. You thrive in complexity, embrace innovation, and have a builder’s mindset—creating new frameworks rather than relying on pre-defined models. With exceptional leadership and communication skills, you inspire teams, influence senior stakeholders, and maintain relentless focus on delivery and measurable impact.
