Do you want to use your research skills to influence real change?

The Race Equality Foundation is an evidence-based charity working to dismantle systemic racism and improve outcomes for Black, Asian, and ethnically minoritised communities across the UK. We generate and share knowledge, influence policy and practice, and deliver programmes that make a tangible impact.

We are looking for an experienced and motivated Researcher or Senior Researcher who is passionate about using evidence to tackle racism and inequality. Organised, reflective, and inquisitive, you will play a key role in shaping and delivering the Foundation’s research and policy work.

You will develop and lead projects exploring the persistence of racial inequalities and their consequences, identifying and sharing good practice, and developing potential solutions. Central to the way we work are intersectional and participatory approaches that place the voices of those with lived experience at the heart of our research, and you will be instrumental in embedding these principles in the projects you manage.

As part of the role, you’ll also take a leading role in disseminating findings to diverse audiences, influencing policy and practice, and developing and maintaining strong relationships with key stakeholders, including central and local government, funders, and voluntary and community sector partners.

This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to impactful research, inform systemic change, and be part of a collaborative, values-driven organisation dedicated to tackling racial inequality.

Why work with us?
You’ll join a values-driven organisation where your work directly contributes to racial justice. We offer:

• Generous annual leave – 25 days rising to 31 after five years, plus bank holidays

• Above-statutory employer pension contributions

• Employee Assistance Scheme (EAS) to support your wellbeing

• Opportunities to work on impactful, high-profile research projects

• A collaborative, supportive, and inclusive working environment
