Chatham House, the Royal Institute for International Affairs, is one of the world’s leading international affairs institutes. An independent policy institute, it is well-known for its rigorous analysis of global, regional and country-specific challenges, and the new ideas it develops on how to address them.

They will deputise for the Director, Dr Robin Niblett, both internally and with relevant external audiences.
Candidates will demonstrate a collegiate and proactive approach and possess excellent interpersonal and relationship-building skills. They will have senior experience in a relevant environment and a strong reputation in an area relevant to Chatham House’s research. They will have the leadership and strategic skills to make a significant contribution to the institute’s ongoing development.
