Original job description

Do you want to be part of a mission driven organization shaping Canada’s innovation future? Do you thrive in collaborative environments where creativity, continuous improvement, and strategic thinking are valued? Are you motivated by work that strengthens Canada’s competitiveness and delivers meaningful impact for communities and businesses?

At Mitacs, we take a talent first approach to building Canada’s innovation capacity. We connect researchers with organizations across every region of the country to help solve pressing challenges and accelerate economic growth. By enabling business academic collaboration and supporting the development of highly skilled talent, we contribute to a resilient, future ready Canadian economy.

Guided by our values - Impact, Integrity, Collaboration, Excellence, and Talent - we work with partners nationwide to advance research, commercialization, and innovation.

At Mitacs, you become part of a team committed to empowering Canadian talent, fostering meaningful partnerships, and driving innovation that supports Canada’s long-term competitiveness. If you’re inspired by big ideas and passionate about creating national impact, we encourage you to apply.

Advisor, Business Development - Lethbridge

Full-time temporary employment - One (1) year contract

This is not your ordinary sales job. Our business development team members are the bridge between academia and industry partners or organizations. They spot opportunities and act on behalf of Mitacs. They are at the forefront of marketing Mitacs programs and are analogous to matchmakers, who find the common interests between companies and researchers.

If you were to join Mitacs as the Business Development Advisor with the University of Lethbridge, we’d ask you to do the following:

Work closely with members of Mitacs Business Development, Research, and Programs teams to deliver high‐quality programming
Work closely with stakeholders at University of Lethbridge to fully understand the needs of the researchers and students, find industry opportunities, and identify the best programs to leverage the research opportunities uncovered
Similarly, work with the other postsecondary institutions in Southern Alberta (e.g. Lethbridge Polytechnic, Red Crow Community College, Medicine Hat College)
Create and maintain a network of partners/clients in industry and academia
Introduce companies and not-for-profit organizations to various Mitacs programs
Introduce companies to various researchers
Provide support to the Business Development team as needed
Provide business development support to all Mitacs programs as needed
Provide business development and student engagement support to University of Lethbridge and other participant institutions
Work collaboratively with offices involved in the administration of Mitacs programs such as the Office of Research and Innovation Services, the School Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies, Career Bridge, and the International Office to:
- ensure clarity of roles of the various parties involved in Mitacs administration plan strategically and operationally means by which to increase participation in Mitacs programs
- promote opportunities through University of Lethbridge’s existing communication channels and beyond
- assist in negotiating the necessary agreements to facilitate discussions and collaborations between the University of Lethbridge and industry partners

This sounds quite exciting and challenging, right? Let’s hope so, because if it does, there’s a good chance this job is right for you. Here’s what you will have already that will help you to handle these challenges:

Recent Masters or PhD (within one or two years), ideally from University of Lethbridge, or an equivalent combination of education and research experience
Excellent communication skills
Excellent presentation skills
Enthusiastic and high‐energy self‐starter spirit
Team player spirit
Ability to think creatively and try new things
Desire to pursue a career outside of research and academia
Ability to work in a fast-paced, high-performance culture
Knowledge of written and spoken English is required in this role as you will interact with colleagues, clients and stakeholders located across Canada

Special consideration will be given to applicants with an active social network with proven ability to promote participation and sponsorship in programs or initiatives in their community.

Hiring Range: $65,325 - $82,745

Hiring and Salary Range Transparency

Typically, employees are hired, transferred, or promoted within the salary range, specifically between the minimum and midpoint in the hiring range.

The salary range refers to the range of base salaries for a given position, encompassing the minimum and maximum amounts. The midpoint of the range is positioned approximately halfway between the minimum and maximum, indicating a fully qualified employee with comprehensive job knowledge and experience for the role.

Only in rare and exceptional circumstances, where a candidate has the experience, skills, and expertise that far exceed those required for the position, would we consider paying above the hiring range for this role.

Our recruitment process may use artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled tools to support activities. Any use of AI is subject to human review and all hiring decisions are made by a human member of our hiring team.
