About Western Sydney University Western Sydney University is a leading research-driven institution located in the heart of Australia's most dynamic region. With 12 campuses, a diverse community of more than 50,000 students, and a passionate team of 3,500 staff, WSU is proud to be ranked in the top two percent of universities globally. Our reputation for excellence continues to grow, with over 85 percent of our research rated as 'World Standard' or above. We have also held the prestigious global number one position in the Times Higher Education University Impact Rankings for three consecutive years, reflecting our strong commitment to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
At Western, we take pride in our values of Boldness, Integrity, Fairness, and Excellence. These values shape everything we do, ensuring our research and educational programs leave a positive and lasting impact on society.
The Opportunity We are seeking a visionary leader for the role of Pro Vice-Chancellor Research (PVCR) to lead the strategic development and enhancement of the University's research and innovation profile. In this pivotal role, you will shape the University's research agenda, championing initiatives that elevate research quality, foster global partnerships, and enhance the University's reputation for impactful research.
Your leadership will be vital in ensuring that Western's research programs align with its broader academic mission, contributing to the University's global standing. You will work closely with key stakeholders from across government, industry, and the community to build strategic partnerships that drive research innovation and create real-world impact. Your role will involve fostering a collaborative research culture, enhancing the capabilities of the Graduate Research School, and promoting the commercialisation of our intellectual property.
With a strong focus on continuous improvement, you will ensure that WSU's research initiatives are future-focused and adaptable to the changing landscape of higher education. Your strategic oversight will contribute to the University's success in international rankings, while also ensuring that all research is conducted with the utmost integrity.
About You You are a trailblazer in your field, with a PhD and an outstanding international reputation for research excellence. As a leader, you combine strategic vision with entrepreneurial spirit, and you are passionate about taking research to new heights. Your extensive experience in leading large-scale research initiatives within complex organisations has equipped you with the skills to manage diverse teams, build research capacity, and navigate the complexities of a rapidly evolving research environment.
You thrive on building relationships that matter. Whether it's guiding emerging researchers, working with industry leaders, or collaborating with international partners, you understand the importance of strong connections and partnerships. You bring a deep understanding of global research standards, university rankings, and sector trends, and you are driven by the desire to position WSU as a leader in research and innovation.
As someone who leads by example, you inspire those around you, championing a culture of excellence, creativity, and impact. You have a track record of delivering results in dynamic and fast-paced environments, and you're excited by the opportunity to drive change and shape the future of research at WSU.
Why Join Us? We are committed to transforming lives through world-class research and innovation. You will have the opportunity to shape and drive a dynamic research agenda that influences global scholarship and creates real-world impact. You will work within a vibrant academic community, collaborating with leading researchers and fostering partnerships that advance knowledge and innovation across industries, governments, and communities.
This role offers you the platform to lead transformative change, position Western as a global leader in research, and ensure that our research initiatives remain adaptable and forward-thinking in an evolving higher education landscape. You'll also be part of an inclusive, progressive university that values integrity, creativity, and the pursuit of excellence, providing you with the resources, support, and freedom to excel in your leadership.
If you are driven by the challenge of advancing research to new heights, this is your opportunity to make a lasting impact
