- Develop project ideas and help secure funding from trusts and foundations, unions, charities, businesses and other funders.
- Write research and policy papers.
- Meet with leading politicians, advisors, sector experts and campaigners to discuss your research and debate new policy ideas.
- Write articles for leading media outlets and seek coverage and broadcast opportunities for your work.
- Represent the society and present your research at events and conferences.

We also welcome applications from candidates with advanced quantitative skills. But if your expertise lies elsewhere, we will be happy to hear your plans.
We pride ourselves on providing strong progression routes for research staff. You will be trusted to work independently and take a leadership role, while also being supported and encouraged to develop. We are looking for staff who want to progress quickly, whether from Researcher to Senior Researcher, or from Senior Researcher to ‘Head of’ role.
