Are you looking for a fixed term opportunity that will give experience of managing an advocacy and change management project that should have real influence on the impact made by the research of one the UK’s top universities? Do you have the skills and the drive to deliver presentations, devise promotional strategies, and monitor the success of your work?

The University of Liverpool is looking for a candidate to drive forward our Open Access Publishing Engagement Project. This project builds on the results of sector-leading Liverpool research showing the correlation between the impact of our researchers’ publications and their availability in open access repositories (so-called Green Open Access).
