The Biorenewables Development Centre (BDC) is an open-access research, development and demonstration biorefining centre and a subsidiary company of the University of York. We were founded from a unique partnership between two well-established research centres at the University of York: the Green Chemistry Centre of Excellence and the Centre for Novel Agricultural Products. This partnership means that we can apply technologies derived from both biology and chemistry to optimise and process biorenewable raw materials for the production of chemicals, materials and fuels.
The BDC currently manage the communications for BioYorkshire, a ten year programme that will accelerate the translation and application of research discoveries into full scale biotechnology applications.
RoleWe are seeking to recruit an experienced Communications and Marketing Manager who will be responsible for all aspects of the BDC and BioYorkshire's external communications, delivering and implementing a focused communications strategy that engages effectively with a broad range of bioeconomy stakeholders from different sectors at regional, national and international levels. The Communications Manager will also be responsible for leading communications and dissemination on the Horizon Europe-funded Agriloop Project, which has 37 partners.
