University of CambridgeSenior Contracts Manager

Mar. 2016 - Mar. 2022Research OperationsAs Senior Contracts Manager, I focus on the more complex or high-risk negotiations and building partnerships to support our world-leading researchers. I represent the University in negotiations concerning: Research Framework Agreements – where a sponsor wishes to engage with the University on a variety of research activities under an over-arching set of terms; Research Centre Agreements – where the University is establishing a research centre that will have multiple contractual relations with a wide range of partners in a single endeavour; Centres for Doctoral Training – where the University has a multi-party centre part-funded by industry and part-funded by a research council. I also serve on the Strategic Partnerships Office groups managing the University's industrial partnerships. I also work closely with the Assistant Directors for each School in areas such as policy, strategy, ethics, and liaise with other University offices or sponsors on significant issues of research funding.
