A welcome message from Katherine Bennett, CBE, our CEO

Dear applicant,

How many people can say they work for an organisation that is dedicated to solving the UK’s toughest challenges?

That is exactly our role at the High Value Manufacturing (HVM) Catapult, working through our centres of innovation and with our partners in industry, academia and government to engineer a better and more secure world.

Critical to that is our partnerships with central and regional government.

I hope you find this microsite informative and are inspired by the role we are advertising: Director of Public Affairs and Partnerships.

Supported by Innovate UK, HVM Catapult bridges the gap between business and academia, enabling companies of all sizes to turn great ideas into commercial reality by providing access to world-class facilities and expertise that would otherwise be out of reach.

Each year, more than 5,500 businesses come to HVM Catapult seeking solutions to a particular problem, or looking for ideas on possible new products, processes or services which could make their firm more profitable, sustainable and competitive.

At the start of a new funding cycle and with a new government in place, we can power the industrial transformation of UK manufacturing to help address the sector’s most pressing challenges.

At this exciting stage of our journey, we need a Director of Public Affairs and Partnerships that can work with our wider engagement and communications team to translate our world-leading innovations and transformative impact into compelling narratives for our key stakeholders.

We are committed to a fair and open recruitment process that looks far and wide for the best talent.

Thank you for your interest in this role and we look forward to receiving your application.

Katherine Bennett
CEO
