The role supports research partnerships, collaboration development and related university initiatives. Typical requirements include a degree in business, research administration, communications or a related discipline, with experience in partnership management, grant coordination, stakeholder engagement or higher-education operations. Strong writing, presentation, project-management and interpersonal skills are expected, along with the ability to work independently and manage multiple deadlines. The successful candidate should be comfortable engaging researchers, industry partners, government agencies and internal departments, preparing proposals and reports, tracking outcomes, and identifying opportunities for collaboration and funding. Familiarity with research ecosystems, innovation programmes and partnership agreements would be advantageous.

Its campus includes research institutes, laboratories, teaching facilities, residential colleges and extensive student services. NTU employs academic, professional and administrative staff from Singapore and around the world.

Singapore offers strong opportunities in education, research, technology, healthcare, finance, logistics and professional services. The work culture is generally efficient, multicultural and results-oriented, with English widely used in business and universities. Life on the island is convenient: public transport is reliable, healthcare is high quality, food choices are diverse and neighbourhoods are generally safe. Housing is the main expense, especially near central districts, although areas such as Jurong West, Pioneer and Boon Lay can be more practical for NTU employees. Foreign professionals usually need an Employment Pass or, for qualifying mid-skilled roles, an S Pass; the employer normally submits the application. Candidates should confirm eligibility, salary requirements and medical or document conditions before relocating. Singapore’s climate is hot and humid year-round, with frequent rain. New arrivals should budget for rent, transport, insurance and deposits, and arrange accommodation before starting work.
