The UK Semiconductor Centre is building the future of the UK’s semiconductor ecosystem — and we’re hiring a standout Investor Relations Manager to help shape how the UK attracts, engages and mobilises capital across this critical sector.
Reporting directly to the Director of Investor Relations, this is a rare opportunity to sit at the centre of the UK’s semiconductor investment landscape, working with VCs, growth funds, corporates, founders and global investors.
Why this role matters
Semiconductors are the backbone of modern technology. The UK has world-class capability – but the investment story needs sharper articulation, stronger connectivity and a more coordinated capital strategy. This role is your chance to influence that narrative at national level.
