ABOUT NICK GREEN
Senior leader with 20+ years’ experience across science, policy, and public research funding, specialising in strategy, programme design, and decision making in complex systems. I’ve led teams and portfolios at scale, including accountability for £600m+ of public research investment, and worked closely with ministers, senior officials, and the research community.I’m most effective in roles focused on designing frameworks, governance, and delivery structures that perform under uncertainty — translating evidence into clear decisions and durable outcomes. With a STEM PhD and deep knowledge of the UK research and innovation landscape, I bring a calm, analytical leadership style and a strong focus on public value through good system design.
