Job Description
Join BrainsCAN, the team conducting groundbreaking cognitive neuroscience and imaging research at Western University!
Western University is seeking an Administrative Officer for BrainsCAN. In this role, you will ensure the efficient coordination of administrative operations for BrainsCAN and will provide guidance and support for a wide range of administrative, human resources, and financial functions and processes, and ensure they are carried out in compliance with all of Western's relevant administrative policies and procedures. You will advise the Executive Director in the resolution of administrative issues, and monitor and manage physical and financial resources and supplies. You will also provide project support, participate in relevant committees, and ensure the availability of necessary documentation, resources and information.
As the ideal candidate, you will have a University degree in Business Management/Administration or a relevant discipline. You will have three (3) years of administrative experience supporting human resources and financial management in a complex research or academic office environment. You will have knowledge of general office procedures, financial budgeting and principles and Human Resources principles and practices; the ability to ensure expenditures and resources are within allotments, and to make appropriate modifications when required; communication skills with an ability to complete detailed analytics and reports; organizational skills to manage multiple assignments that are accurate and thorough, sometimes of a complex nature or involving competing priorities; and intermediate computer skills in Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint). Experience managing and overseeing staff and projects and experience working with PeopleSoft Financials would be an asset.
Western University ranks as one of Canada’s top research-intensive universities. From fundamental to applied discovery, its researchers advance knowledge that provides tangible benefits for the economic, social, health and cultural development of citizens in London, in Canada and around the world. While the University has achieved acclaim for research in a full complement of disciplines, it has identified signature areas in which global-scale clusters of research excellence have been established, including Neuroscience/Brain & Mind.
Western University's BrainsCAN initiative received a substantial $66 million investment from the Canada First Research Excellence Fund (CFREF)– the largest research grant in the university's history – providing a significant boost to ongoing research in cognitive neuroscience and imaging at Western. Already ranked amongst the best in the world in cognitive neuroscience and neuroimaging, Western excels in the breadth of cognitive, computational, clinical, technological, and translational approaches required for understanding and intervening in brain function. Western will partner with researchers at McGill University, who also received CFREF funding, to leverage complementary expertise to better understand disorders such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, traumatic brain injury, and schizophrenia. The goal of BrainsCAN is to significantly reduce the impact of cognitive disorders across the lifespan. To do this, our scientific approach will identify how cognitive markers map onto specific brain networks using our state of the art behavioral and imaging platforms.
