Lead the commercial strategy and business development for research platforms within the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences. Transform scientific capabilities into commercially viable services and manage industry partnerships to ensure financial sustainability.
Requires a tertiary qualification in science, business, or a related field with strong commercial experience in science, technology, or health sectors. Must be able to translate complex technical information into compelling value propositions for external partners.
Uniservices | Waipapa Taumata Rau | The University of Auckland
UniServices is the University of Auckland’s research commercialisation and growth team. We sit at the intersection of research, innovation, and industry, with a mission to grow and commercialise the University’s vast footprint of research expertise.
This is a pivotal role within the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, focused on driving the commercial success and sustainability of world-class research platforms and core facilities. Sitting at the intersection of cutting-edge science and industry, you’ll transform these platforms into commercially attractive services while growing external partnerships and revenue.
You’ll play a key role in shaping commercial strategy, developing industry relationships, and ensuring research infrastructure delivers both scientific and financial impact.

This is a full-time, permanent role (40 hours per week, Monday to Friday). The pay range is $130,700 - $159,900 pa depending on skills and experience.
You’re a commercially minded professional who enjoys working at the intersection of research, people and industry. You’re comfortable engaging with scientists and technical experts, and you know how to turn complex information and concepts into something that makes sense and holds value for external partners.
You don’t need to be a scientist, but you’re genuinely interested in science‑led innovation and research infrastructure. You understand that relationships matter, and you’re at your best when building trust, bringing people together and finding practical ways to make things work for everyone involved.
You may have gained your experience in areas such as business development, scientific services, contract research, technology commercialisation or account management, and are now looking for a role where you can take a more strategic, site‑based approach.
Experience working with research platforms or scientific services is an advantage, but above all, we’re looking for someone who can connect capability, people and opportunity.
Deliver meaningful impact with unique variety, supporting life‑changing research across platforms ranging from microscopy to advanced MRI.
