Research Grants and Programmes Manager (Welfare)

Nuffield Foundation • Remote (London, England, United Kingdom) • from £51.93k / year • 2d ago

Salary: Starting from £51,925 per annum (negotiable depending upon experience)
Contract: 6 month FTC (potential for extension).
Hours: Full time (35 hours). Part time and secondment arrangements also considered.
Location: We are London based (Farringdon). Our staff have the option to work part of the week from home.
Closing: 09:30am (BST), Monday 23rd June 2025.

The Nuffield Foundation is an open, collaborative, and engaged funder, offering more than money. Its aim is to understand the social, demographic, technological and economic trends that shape people’s lives.

We are looking for somebody with professional experience of research or analysis to specifically support the development and management of the Nuffield Foundation's portfolio of research grants within our Welfare programme, focused on research that contributes to a prosperous, fair and inclusive society. We are particularly interested in individuals with experience of research into the societal implications of net zero, the implications of the UK’s changing demographic structure, or the socioeconomic determinants and consequences of health outcomes.

You will be familiar with a broad range of research methods in the design, development and management of research and analysis projects, with deeper understanding of some methods across areas such as econometrics, survey design, modelling or qualitative research techniques.

As well as research and policy experience in the previously referenced areas of research, expertise in housing, family, communities and the economy would also be beneficial. A breadth of interest across our other programmes of work will also be advantageous.

In addition to this you will have excellent verbal and written communication, be highly organised, and be able to develop collaborative relationships across the organisation.

We are also committed to embedding Equity, Diversity and Inclusion considerations into all we do, including an active programme of work to make our grant-giving processes as inclusive as possible. An enthusiasm for doing this is essential, and experience of having done related work is not essential but would be desirable.

This is an excellent opportunity to use your experience to ensure our research is relevant, rigorous, and impactful and ultimately make a difference to people’s lives.
