Senior R&D Programme Manager and Lab Coordinator - Breda, Nederland - Werkenbijhogescholen
Beschrijving
Functie-inhoud
About our Research & Development (R&D) progr amme The R&D programme on Digital Realities is organised in three professorships: Serious Games, Entertainment Games and Immersive Media. Together, this team of 24 enthusiastic researchers, engineers, designers and developers work in our Cradle R&D lab (see ) on state-of-the-art innovations in key areas such as Serious and Entertainment Games, Simulations, Digital Twins, Virtual Humans, Virtual Productions, and Immersive Media (VR, AR). We design, engineer, apply, and study these innovations to address societal challenges in energy, climate, ecology, health, broad prosperity, journalism, safety, education and more. Our national and international R&D projects are externally funded by the EU, NWO (Dutch Research Council), SIA (Taskforce for Applied Research) and other organisations, and we work with many regional, national and international partners in industry, universities, governments and society.
One key R&D area is the successful Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) Challenge simulation platform () which combines with the EU Green Deal ILIAD Digital Twins for the Ocean (DITTO) initiative. For this platform, in particular, we are recruiting a Programme Manager and Lab Coordinator.
About this job
As an R&D Programme Manager and Lab Coordinator you combine your technical knowledge and expertise with a good understanding of the human and social-political dimension of decision making. You manage the Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) Challenge simulation platform.
A significant part of the work will focus on the programme and project management of the externally funded MSP Challenge/DITTO projects, including their technical development in the years to come. Depending on your background and interests there are many pathways available for personal and professional growth and development.
You will work with, and under the leadership of, the professor(s) within the overall management structure of the Academy for Games & Media (AGM) at Breda University of Applied Sciences (BUas). You will form a team with two or three other Cradle programme managers. You will co-lead and manage substantial R&D projects conducted by small interdisciplinary teams of Cradle specialists and/or specialists from other BUas academies. You will also work with external R&D partners, in the Netherlands, in Europe and beyond. Excellent social and communication skills and a willingness to travel are therefore required. A demonstrated professional background in and 'a passion for' innovations involving AI, games and media technology is required.
You love to work with experts and students and enjoy the benefits of working in an educational environment. BUas aims to create a stimulating workplace for both students and staff, to enable them to integrate knowledge and skills, to develop their talents to the fullest and apply these to society in a professional and responsible manner.
