Department: Management, Specialist and Administration

Salary: £30,805 to £37,174

Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Associate (PDRA) to take a key role in the development of a new analytical framework for developing dexterous soft robotic manipulators. The role is funded by The successful applicant will be based at the ³ÉÈËÍøÕ¾.

The emerging technology of soft robotics exploits flexible and compliant materials for their design. They are able to translate fundamental biological principles into new engineering design rules or combine life-like components into a synthetic structure to create robotic systems that perform very much like a natural system. Soft robotic systems provide a route to increase body flexibility, improve dexterous handling in unstructured environments, enable adaptability of wearable and medical devices, and safer human-machine interaction. Machine Learning (ML) is an emerging technology with significant potential in integrating and embodying soft robotics technologies, but it is in its infancy in this area. This high-risk, high-gain project will provide a step-change and lead to advances at the frontiers of knowledge in soft robotics by creating a new analytical modelling framework which involves new model- and learning-based approaches and their integration to allow modelling, prediction, control and understanding of soft robotic manipulators. The new framework will address and overcome “frustrating unpredictability”, “surprising results”, “ineffectiveness and inaccuracy”, and “unreliability” of the soft manipulators during motion, as well as “a lack of understanding and tools” challenge during research on soft robotics.

The PDRA will be responsible for delivering high-quality research on the topic, including:

• Design and development of soft manipulators.
• Development of a multimodal sensing system and the learning-based models of soft manipulators.
• Model assessment and evaluation.
• Creation of an analytical modelling framework to enable an understanding and the development of dexterous soft robotic manipulators 

This role will suit you if you:

• Hold a PhD degree in a subject area of direct relevance for the project.
• Have previous experience in one or more of the following: modelling, design, control or prototyping of soft robots and systems.
• Have excellent analytical, problem-solving, and project management skills.
• Are self-motivated and have excellent communication skills.

You will be responsible for planning and performing your own research activities. You will be expected to take an active role in supporting PhD and undergraduate research students within the laboratory. You should have excellent interpersonal and communication skills to work as part of a team and discuss your work with a range of audiences.

³ÉÈËÍøÕ¾ the role

This is a pivotal role that blends technical expertise with strategic insight. You’ll work closely with the Digital, Data & Technology Group, the Department of Planning, Performance & Strategic Change and the Department of Sport and Recreation to ensure a robust financial framework is in place for in-year financial monitoring, budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting. By providing accurate and timely financial data, you will enable departments to make well-informed decisions that align with the University's strategic objectives.

You’ll also play a key role in supporting strategic projects—developing financial models, conducting cost-benefit analyses, and assessing the financial viability of new initiatives. By delivering clear and actionable financial insights, you will help project teams understand their finances, optimise resource allocation, and enhance project outcomes.

Sitting within the MIS team in Finance and Procurement, you’ll play a critical role in ensuring compliance with financial regulations and internal policies, mitigating financial risks, and promoting best practices in financial management.

This position is offered on a full-time, open-ended basis. You’ll benefit from a hybrid working pattern, working on-site two days per week (once at the Virgil Building, and another day on campus).

³ÉÈËÍøÕ¾ you

Our ideal candidate will be:

• A qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent)
• Experienced in project accounting and financial modelling
• Confident and experienced in building relationships with senior stakeholders
• Technically proficient and able to understand and explain implications of decisions.
• Able to adapt to a changing environment

Experience within higher education, NHS, or the public sector is desirable due to the complexity of our organisation, but this is not essential. Whilst we value direct experience, we’re equally interested in candidates with strong potential and the right mindset.

Further information:

Interviews are expected to take place in-person, on the 17th and/or 18th July.

Department: Management, Specialist and Administration

Salary: £46,735 to £55,755

We are seeking an industrious, independent, and ambitious postdoctoral researcher to join a multi-institutional project aimed funded by Versus Arthritis focussed on developing a novel peptide-siRNA conjugate for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). In this project, you will be involved in the synthesis of peptide-siRNA conjugates that are designed to bind specific receptors to enable targeted delivery of disease-modifying nucleic acid agents directly to affected joint cells.

OA is a degenerative joint disorder and a leading cause of pain and disability, affecting over 500 million people worldwide. Currently, no approved treatments exist that can halt or reverse disease progression. Existing pain relief options are often ineffective or associated with adverse side effects. Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) have emerged as a promising new class of therapeutics with unique advantages over traditional drugs. Six siRNA-based therapies are already approved for clinical use. However, a major hurdle in applying siRNA therapeutics to OA is the efficient and targeted delivery of siRNAs to joint-resident cells.

³ÉÈËÍøÕ¾ you

You will hold a PhD in organic chemistry, medicinal chemistry, chemical biology, or a related discipline.

You should have practical experience of peptide synthesis, linker chemistries, and the preparation of conjugates with biomolecules, especially nucleic acids.

You should also have a strong track record of carrying out academic or industrial research at the interface of chemistry and biology, ideally evidenced by publications in peer-reviewed journals.

Additional information

The post is available for 12 months and will be primarily supervised by Dr Ian Eggleston (Department of Life Sciences, ³ÉÈËÍøÕ¾). You will also work closely with Prof Mark Lindsay ³ÉÈËÍøÕ¾, and colleagues at University of Birmingham (Professor Simon Jones) and University Nottingham (Prof Vicky Chapman and Dr Federico Dajas-Bailador).

Interviews will take place in the week commencing 11 August 2025.

For an informal discussion relating to this vacancy, please contact Dr Ian Eggleston (ie203@bath.ac.uk) and Prof. Mark Lindsay (mal37@bath.ac.uk)

Are you a highly organised individual who enjoys working at the heart of strategic programmes? Would you thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same? We’re looking for a proactive and collaborative professional to work with the Executive Director of Innovation at the ³ÉÈËÍøÕ¾.

The University is growing its innovation ambition—supporting new ideas, civic impact, and business engagement as part of a major strategic drive. This post combines the trusted, professional role of Executive Assistant with the dynamic challenge of project coordination across a portfolio of innovation initiatives—from helping grow our Innovation District in Bath city centre to supporting Strategic Partnerships and entrepreneurship.

You’ll be based at the University and have the opportunity to work closely with academic leaders, external partners, and operational teams.

In this role, you will:

• Provide high-level executive support, including diary management, meeting preparation, and correspondence handling for the Executive Director of Innovation.
• Coordinate and track progress on a portfolio of strategic innovation projects, ensuring smooth delivery and effective communication.
• Draft briefings, reports, and presentations for internal and external audiences, often at short notice.
• Liaise with stakeholders across the University and beyond, including funders, civic partners, and business collaborators.

This is a rare opportunity to work at the heart of a high-impact programme supporting the University’s long-term innovation strategy. If you’re driven, diplomatic, and detail-oriented—with an interest in supporting ideas that shape the future—this could be the perfect fit.

We’re looking for someone who thrives on variety, works well under pressure, and enjoys supporting strategic leadership while keeping projects running smoothly. You don’t need to have worked in a university before—but you do need to be organised, proactive, and able to deal confidently with people at all levels.

³ÉÈËÍøÕ¾ you

• Excellent administrative and organisational skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and keep others on track.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with experience preparing briefings, reports, and high-quality correspondence.
• Discretion, professionalism and judgement, especially when handling confidential or sensitive matters.
• Confidence working independently, while also being a collaborative team member who builds positive relationships across a wide range of stakeholders.
• Experience supporting senior leaders or project teams, ideally in a fast-paced or complex organisation.
• Comfort with digital tools and systems, including Microsoft 365 (Teams, Outlook, Word, Excel, etc.) and document management platforms.

We are particularly interested in candidates who:

• Can bring experience working on or supporting strategic programmes or innovation activity
• Show enthusiasm for learning and contributing to a team focused on Innovation and partnerships 

Essential qualifications or equivalent experience:

• You should hold a good standard of education (e.g., A-levels or equivalent), ideally with evidence of further training or professional development in administration or project support.
• Equivalent experience in a relevant administrative, executive assistant, or programme coordination role will also be considered.

We value diversity and encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds and experiences. If you're not sure whether you meet every requirement but are excited by this role, we’d still love to hear from you.

This role is offered on a full-time (36.5 hours), open ended basis. For an informal discussion about the role please contact either Jon Hunt (Executive Director of Innovation) via jh298@bath.ac.uk or Suzanne Maxwell (Head of the Vice-Chancellor’s Office) via s.j.maxwell@bath.ac.uk.
