The Research Manager will work in a small team that is responsible for commissioning and managing high quality, robust social research, and for synthesising and disseminating evidence of what works to support the most disadvantaged young people into good jobs.

You will support all aspects of Youth Futures research, from project development to impact.

This will include: helping to develop our research strategy; identifying research questions alongside colleagues in Youth Futures; working closely with our research partners and suppliers so that projects are delivered on time and to budget; and ensuring that all research outputs are consistently high quality and make clear, practical and impactful recommendations for practice and policy.

To apply for this role, you will be asked to answer 4 role based questions and to upload your CV.

Please note: you will be asked to confirm that you are answering the questions yourself and that answers are not plagiarised or automatically generated by AI software, before you start your application. 

We expect thoughtful and personalised responses to our application questions, rather than generic AI-generated answers. Applications found to contain AI-generated content without meaningful personalisation will be flagged, and scores could be impacted.

You must ensure that you genuinely record the abilities, skills and experience that are verifiable. Remember, as the applicant, you are responsible for the entire content of your application, regardless of how it is generated.
