Job Spec: This newly created role presents an exciting opportunity to be part of a dynamic and ambitious agency which makes a difference to the lives of people whose voices are often unheard, and to be part of its continued growth and development, working alongside bright, energetic and entrepreneurial people.

They provide research, evaluation, engagement and strategy work with children and young people, minority ethnic groups, culturally diverse communities, people living in vulnerable circumstances, people with protected characteristics and people who often go unheard. Their vision is one where people who have been traditionally unheard are fairly represented and have the power to influence decision making.

Their current clients are mainly public sector (local councils/local government/NHS trusts) and charities and they also do some work in the private sector.

They have been successful to date, and there are lots of incoming opportunities for new work. They also proactively bid for business. They are now at the point where they want to build out the business; they have set a strategy and have a clear plan, and this newly created role is key to their growth plans.

The research they conduct is predominantly qual with some quant and some evaluation and they certainly see the opportunity to develop all parts of their offer. As such, we need someone with a strong qual background, including working with minority and unheard groups and someone who has an understanding of quant and can oversee quant programmes and analyse quant data. Evaluation experience would be nice to have but is not a deal-breaker. They are super-creative, and enjoy using a wide range of techniques to help them both uncover insights and deliver them to their clients in memorable and meaningful ways so you will need to demonstrate a passion and track record in this.

The role will be client facing and play a key role in delivering high quality work to budget and on time, working alongside operational colleagues so project management skills are key.

It will actively contribute to proposal and bid writing; some exposure to this is important, as is an enjoyment of the commercial side.

Processes, procedures and systems are being developed all the time so a proactive mindset and a willingness to put forward and drive the delivery of new ideas is important. This role will appeal to someone who enjoys working in an agile environment.

This is a wonderful opportunity for someone who wants to be play an active role in a start-up-type environment, and be part of this organisation's exciting journey.
