ProfBradley Williams

I lead external and international engagement on behalf of the Faculty of Science at UTS. My expertise includes research leadership and management, operational management and line management of technical and support staff, and project management. I have extensive experience with industry liaison and research contract negotiations, and with policy and strategy development and implementation. I founded and was the first Director of the Research Centre for Synthesis and Catalysis at the University of Johannesburg (UJ, South Africa), and also the Bioresource Processing Alliance at Callaghan Innovation (New Zealand). I raised funds to equip the Department of Chemistry at UJ with high capital value research/analytical equipment for improved strategic positioning and have contributed to quality control processes at Faculty and institutional levels. I have raised over $19M to fund research and major CAPEX, have a synthesis chemistry research background with an industrial focus.
