    Description
    The Opportunity

    Huron helps its clients drive growth, enhance performance and sustain leadership in the markets they serve.

    We collaborate with education organizations to develop strategies and implement solutions that enable the transformative change our clients need to own their future.

    Together, we empower clients to drive innovation, create sustainable funding streams and deliver better student outcomes.


    Today, leaders of higher education institutions and academic medical centers are spending too much time reacting to market forces, rather than focusing on the essential priorities that help students, faculty and staff thrive.

    The most productive path forward requires an intentional approach and innovative thinking, whereby stakeholders across the entire institution rally around a shared vision and embrace the hard work of effecting change.


    You'll help our clients to achieve organizational effectiveness, improve student outcomes, implement new technologies and align resources and investments to ensure long-term sustainability.

    Join our team as the expert you are now and create your future.

    Position Summary


    Our Research Enterprise Solutions team works with hospitals, universities, cancer centers and research institutions and helps these organizations improve every aspect of research administration performance through transformative change.

    As part of the team, you will provide the critical connection between Product Management and internal stakeholders who define value and the engineering team responsible for implementing it.

    The Product Owner makes it possible for the teams to produce the value that the enterprise needs on initiatives required to align the Huron Research Suite solutions to the Huron Point of View (POV) and industry standards.


    Our legacy is rooted in the industry – bringing an unmatched level of expertise and experience in higher education, healthcare, and academic medicine.

    Yet we challenge the status quo and empower our clients to think more deeply about the future and the use of technology to support their business processes.

    Through the implementation and use of Huron Research Suite solutions, we enable our clients to identify and realize unique opportunities to drive higher levels of performance and impact.


    At Huron we provide flexible, scalable, and configurable solutions to streamline workflow that enables our clients to relieve administrative burden to free up time for what matters most – their research mission.

    Let's get to work – together.
