What I do as part of my role

I work with my job share partner, Katie, to keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes of the project, including the design and implementation of funding calls, the development of our digital communication channels, financial processing and budget monitoring. In addition, I lead on our regular e-newsletter, which involves writing and compiling news items, and managing our mailing list. 

What I’ve enjoyed about the project

I’ve loved supporting and learning about the research of our 17 funded project teams, pulling together our digital comms, and helping to organise and run events. It’s been a pleasure working with people and teams from diverse backgrounds, getting to know more about their work, their approaches to collaboration, and their personal journeys. Coming from a Student Experience background, I’ve valued the opportunity to learn more about the staff and PGR experience at Strathclyde.

Talk to me about…

• Our events and activities, ways we can try to improve research culture, and anything you would like us to highlight in our e-newsletter or on our digital platforms.
• Career transitions - I’ve had a few changes of focus over the years, starting out as a librarian, then working in IT, and freelancing along the way.
