Scientific Grants Advisor

The German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) is one of Europe's largest cancer research centers. “Research for a life without cancer" is the mission of our world-class scientists and all our team members.

We investigate how cancer develops, identify cancer risk factors and search for new cancer prevention strategies. We develop new methods with which tumors can be diagnosed more precisely and cancer patients can be treated more successfully. Every contribution counts – whether in research, administration or infrastructure. This is what makes our daily work so meaningful and exciting.

To strengthen the team at the Grants Office of the DKFZ, we are seeking for the next possible date a Scientific Grants Advisor.

With this position, the Grants Office is expanding the "Scientific Grants Advisors and EU Strategy Group" to better support DKFZ scientists with their grant applications, especially for transfer-oriented grants.
