Toronto, Canada Toronto Metropolitan Full time

**About Toronto Metropolitan**:
At the intersection of mind and action, Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) is on a transformative path to become Canada’s leading comprehensive innovation university. Integral to this path is the placement of equity, diversity and inclusion as fundamental to our institutional culture. Our current academic plan outlines each as core values and we work to embed them in all that we do.

In April 2022, the university announced its new name of Toronto Metropolitan University. Learn more about our next chapter.

**About the Office of the Vice-President, Research and Innovation**

As Canada's comprehensive innovation university, Toronto Metropolitan University engages in scholarly, research and creative (SRC) activity that addresses real-world challenges to drive economic growth and improve quality of life for Canadians.

Innovation is at the core of our research mandate. Our centres and institutes bring together faculty and industry partners to solve research problems and provide opportunities for students to learn.

Our strong focus on innovation and evidence-based research has made us a preferred partner for government, industry, not-for-profit organizations, communities and individuals. Together, we are improving processes, developing new technologies and services, and creating new companies and social enterprises.

The Office of the Vice-President, Research and Innovation (OVPRI) establishes the strategic direction and oversees the administration of Toronto Metropolitan University’s scholarly, research and creative activity (SRC) enterprise, including grants administration, external funding, SRC policies, partnerships and collaborations, commercialization, and business development.

While we rely upon the expertise and experience of our Grants/Contracts Officers, the Research Services team also offers professional development and continuous learning for our team members to ensure that we stay on top of the latest developments in research administration and management, as well as to develop new skills and capacities in our team members to support the growing research enterprise at our Institution.

Please note that this is a two-year term position with a possibility of renewal. Additionally, this will be a flexible work opportunity with an expectation of working on campus 3 days a week, with further flexibility within those parameters to meet operational needs and work/life balance.
