This role sits at the centre of the Cambridge-AZ-Beijing Life Sciences Collaboration Programme, a partnership between the University of Cambridge, AstraZeneca and partners in Beijing focused on international collaboration, knowledge exchange and innovation in life sciences.
You'll lead the planning and delivery of the Cambridge-AZ-Beijing Life Sciences Forum, a flagship two-day conference held across Cambridge and Beijing. It will bring together people from academia, industry, healthcare and government, so the detail really matters.
The work is varied and practical. One day might be focused on venue, travel and delegate planning. Another might involve speaker briefings, supplier coordination, budgets, risk logs or event-day delivery.
You'll work closely with the Global Outreach Manager, AstraZeneca colleagues and a wide range of external partners, while being employed by Cambridge Enterprise. The role also supports Global Outreach and the wider Entrepreneurship & Ecosystems team where needed.
Without this role, the forum would not have the structure, coordination or careful planning needed to bring senior stakeholders, speakers, suppliers and delegates together smoothly.
