We're looking for an ambitious and influential Manager, Physics Workforce on a full-time, permanent basis, to lead research, insight and engagement that helps our stakeholders better appreciate and understand the value of physics skills, the workforce challenges facing physics-powered sectors, and identify solutions that make a lasting difference.

Physics for our future. From clean energy and advanced manufacturing to healthcare, defence, digital technologies and emerging industries, physics skills are critical to economic growth, innovation and solving global challenges. Yet, at the same time, the contribution of physics skills remains poorly understood and often invisible in national workforce conversations. The Institute of Physics is determined to change that.

Why this role matters. Our vision is a world where physics transforms lives, creates opportunity and helps tackle society's biggest challenges. The Manager, Physics Workforce will play a central role in building evidence and supporting the translation of insight into action.

This is an exciting opportunity to shape national conversations. You'll uncover evidence that informs decision-making, develop thought leadership that challenges assumptions, and support the building of partnerships that drive positive change across industry, education and government.

What will I be doing? As Manager, Physics Workforce, you'll help position the IOP as a trusted authority on workforce and physics skills issues. You will:

• Lead high-profile workforce and skills research programmes across the UK and Ireland.
• Develop compelling evidence and insight that supports change and informs decision-making.
• Translate complex evidence into clear, persuasive narratives that inspire action.
• Produce influential reports, briefings and thought leadership.
• Identify emerging workforce trends and opportunities.
• Contribute to skills and workforce activity across our strategic priorities of Skills, Science and Society.

• Raise awareness of the economic value of physics skills.
• Influence workforce and skills policy and investment at national and regional levels.
• Support physics-powered sectors to thrive.
• Raise the visibility of pathways into physics-powered careers.
• Ensure evidence drives action across the physics skills ecosystem.
• Help create a stronger, more diverse and more future-ready workforce.

Who will I work with? You'll engage with a diverse network of influential stakeholders, including industry leaders and employers; sector bodies and workforce experts; policymakers and strategic influencers; members of our physics community, and colleagues across the IOP.

This is a role for a strategic thinker, someone who enjoys collaboration and working across organisational and sector boundaries.

About you. You're naturally curious, motivated by impact and comfortable navigating complex challenges. You know how to turn evidence into influence and insight into action.

You may already be working in:

• Workforce development, skills/STEM policy or public affairs, or labour market research and analysis.

Most importantly, you'll bring:

• Exceptional research and analytical capability, with the ability to create compelling narratives from data and evidence.
• Domain knowledge and understanding of the complexities of the skills ecosystem.
• Strong project and programme leadership experience.
• Excellent stakeholder engagement and influencing skills.
• A track record of delivering work that informs decisions and drives change.

Why join the Institute of Physics, the professional body and learned society for physics in the UK and Ireland? The IOP is a friendly, inclusive and ambitious organisation, where diversity and inclusion are central to how we work. We focus on supporting our people to thrive, offering competitive pay, great development opportunities and a generous benefits package.

Some of our benefits include:

• An excellent pension scheme
• Private medical insurance, life assurance, dental insurance and a healthcare cash plan
• Eye care vouchers, annual flu vaccinations, long service awards and access to an employee assistance programme
• 25 days’ annual leave as a standard, rising to a maximum of 30 days with continued service, in addition to floating bank holidays (that can be taken flexibly)

As a core part of our Workforce and HE team, you will have an opportunity to make a tangible contribution to all three.

If you're excited by the idea of combining research, influence, stakeholder insight and thought leadership to tackle some of the most important workforce challenges facing physics-powered sectors, we'd love to hear from you!

How to apply. Alongside your CV, please include a cover letter explaining how you meet the person specification. Where possible, please give examples of thought leadership you have developed and the impact it had.

We’re committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive culture for everyone. If you need any reasonable adjustments during the application or recruitment process, please let us know as we’re always happy to help.

Please note whilst we are unable to offer visa sponsorship for this role, we warmly encourage applications from candidates who already have the right to work in the UK and Ireland.

How will I be working? We operate a flexible, trust based working model that gives colleagues autonomy over how, when and where they work, while recognising the value of in person collaboration. You will be assigned a base office, with hybrid working offered as standard.

You will engage in regular in person collaboration with your team (as operationally appropriate), as well as with colleagues across the wider organisation, to ensure effective operational alignment and to support our inclusive approach to working.

You will also play an important role in ensuring that Tinnitus UK is ready for the future: improving organisational resilience, strengthening our infrastructure and helping us develop the capacity to grow our reach and impact.

About you

We are looking for an experienced operations professional who enjoys making organisations work better and wants to take significant responsibility within a national charity.

You will be proactive, solutions-focused and comfortable bringing structure to complexity. You can see the bigger picture while making sure the detail is right, manage competing priorities and take ownership of work through to delivery.

You will be confident working with colleagues at all levels, from supporting and developing your team to discussing finance, governance and organisational priorities with the CEO and Trustees. You will build trusted relationships with external partners and suppliers and be comfortable offering constructive challenge when needed.

You will bring experience across a number of areas including organisational operations, financial management, project and change management, governance and risk, people management, suppliers and contracts, and organisational systems or CRM platforms.

Experience within the charity sector, membership organisations, digital transformation, events or professional education would be valuable, as would experience working closely with a CEO, senior leadership team or Board.

Most importantly, you will be collaborative, pragmatic and dependable, with the confidence to take ownership, maintain high standards and help create an organisation in which people can do their best work.

What we can offer

This is an opportunity to take on a genuinely influential role within Tinnitus UK at an important point in our development.

You will have the scope to shape how the charity operates, introduce improvements and work closely with our CEO and Board to strengthen the organisation for the future.

The role offers considerable variety. One day you might be discussing organisational risk and financial performance with Trustees; the next you could be improving a system, negotiating with a supplier, supporting a member of your team or developing the operational plan for a major national event.

You will join an organisation committed to improving the lives of people affected by tinnitus and a team that wants to continually improve the way we work and the impact we achieve.

Tinnitus UK is committed to equality, diversity and inclusion and welcomes applications from people with a wide range of backgrounds and experiences.

If you are an experienced operations professional looking for a senior role where you can influence, improve and help lead an organisation with a clear social purpose, we would love to hear from you. 

How to apply

Please apply with your CV and a cover letter outlining how you meet the person specification, including the experience and skills you would bring to Tinnitus UK.

The deadline for applications is 5pm on Monday 14 September 2026.

Interviews will take place in person on Wednesday 23 September 2026 at our Sheffield office.

About Us

Motor Neurone Disease moves fast. It takes away time, it takes away independence and it has no cure. Every day we support people affected by MND.We fund ground-breaking research. We campaign for better care. We’re here for everyone who needs us. Because with MND, every day matters.

This is a new role at High Trees, created because we believe Lambeth’s voluntary and community sector (VCS) is one of the borough’s greatest assets – strong, skilled and rooted in the communities it serves. Place-based organisations like ours play a vital role in supporting individuals, strengthening communities, growing local economies and shaping the policy decisions that affect the people we work with. We want a dedicated Manager who can help make that case, loudly and effectively, both within High Trees and across the wider system.

A key part of this role is our contract to deliver capacity building support to Lambeth’s VCS, commissioned by the local authority and delivered through the Lambeth Hubs Partnership – but this is one strand of a much bigger picture. We want this role to think beyond any single contract, taking a long-term view of what Lambeth’s VCS infrastructure support needs to look like, and leading the development of new approaches, including peer support models and a more circular economy across the sector.

Health and wellbeing is increasingly shaping where funding and investment in our sector flows, and we want Lambeth’s VCS to be ready and well-positioned to respond to this shift. You will play a leading role in this, working with partners including the SEL VCS Alliance to develop shared practice across South East London boroughs, and ensuring our sector’s voice is heard as these opportunities develop.

This role is as much strategic as it is operational – we’re never too far from the ground at High Trees, and you’ll be expected to lead on much of the day-to-day delivery yourself. That means designing and delivering workshops and one-to-one capacity building support, developing resources and toolkits, and running networking events that bring Lambeth’s VCS together. You’ll also build a network of trusted delivery partners – freelancers and facilitators, ideally drawn from within our own sector – helping to keep skills, income and opportunity circulating within Lambeth’s VCS.

As VCS Capacity Building Manager, you will lead High Trees’ work to strengthen Lambeth’s voluntary and community sector, acting as an advocate for High Trees and a champion for the wider sector, while managing funded contracts and programmes that support local organisations to grow their skills, systems and impact.

The role combines strategic leadership – shaping High Trees’ contribution to the future of VCS infrastructure support, and representing the sector within key partnerships – with hands-on operational delivery, including direct capacity building support, training and events. You will be confident managing multiple work streams, and equally comfortable working strategically and on the ground.
