In this role you will be responsible for delivery of enterprise support and activities to aspiring student and graduate ventures at the University of Glasgow. The primary purpose of this role is working with clients on a one-to-one basis (discussing business propositions, reviewing business plans, supporting the development of competition applications and pitch decks, signposting to appropriate ecosystem partners and working collaboratively with University colleagues to access expert support and mentorship from our alumni network), supporting their development as they progress through the company formation process and beyond.

You will also develop and manage a range of programmes including regular start-up bootcamps, an annual Start Up Factory Weekend, Summer and Growth programmes, as well as supporting design sprints and other emerging programmes across specific disciplines. You will also support the development of entrepreneurship in the curriculum.

This role will be line managed by the Student and Graduate Enterprise Manager and work closely with the Innovation and Enterprise Programmes teams, who hold overall accountability for the operational delivery of the Directorate’s enterprise programme activities. The post does require some evening and weekend support for programme delivery.
