Research Programme Manager

Our client mission is to provide sustainable funding of medical research into rheumatic and related musculoskeletal, immunological, and inflammatory diseases. With a focus on unmet needs, the trust’s longer-term objective is to achieve a meaningful impact in the development of disease treatments and preventative approaches for these debilitating conditions across the life course. The trust has advanced this strategic vision through the support of the world-class research undertaken at the University of Oxford. The trust’s funding also extends nationwide across thirteen UK universities where they support talented scientists at every stage in their career, from doctoral students to senior research leaders. The trust recognizes the extraordinary potential of UK science and wishes to play its part in nurturing and retaining the very best talent to further its mission by funding the highest quality research to deliver the most meaningful results.

The trust’s investment in research is not purely financial; its funding relationships are built on open, ongoing dialogue with current grant recipients, as well as future recipients around their ideas and scientific approach. There is a strong requirement for building and sustaining relationships with external stakeholders, including research institutions, funders and the trust’s constituency of scientists.

We are pleased to be working with the the trust to recruit a new Research & Grants Programme Manager to join its small and very focused team. Working in a hybrid manner with up to two days in offices in Hammersmith, London, and the remainder working remotely from home.

The role:

Working closely with the CEO, this pivotal role will oversee the entire grant-making processes and funding activities of the trust, in addition to driving the intellectual rigor of the research work of its grantees, in line with the core charitable objectives of the trust. This will involve managing all aspects of pre and post-award research management, reporting writing, grant finance management and governance, co-ordination of the trust’s scientific committees and shaping external scientific communications to supporters and other stakeholders.

A central element of the role will be to manage the trust’s research funding initiatives, nurturing existing relationships with a broad network of high-level panels of experts and peer reviewers, as well as a wide range of stakeholders and past and present grantees. Working closely with the CEO, this person will maintain an expansive and knowledgeable view of the research landscape, understanding the important changes and influences relevant to the work of the trust. Leading on the Trust’s communications by producing social media and website content in addition to external reporting, this role will also support and manage its annual conference.
 
The person:

The successful candidate will have substantial and demonstrable experience of high-level research management in combination with an extensive grants-management and funding process management background. Educated ideally to PhD level in a scientific subject, or the equivalent in high-level research-led programme management experience, this person will be ambitious with excellent attention to detail and an intellectually curious and rigorous approach. A background in science based, research led, grant-making will be important as well as having a systematic and process driven approach. This experience would ideally have been gained in the charity sector or the higher education or grant-making sectors.

Experience of impact measurement, grants report writing and preparing content for communications and social media will be important, in addition to having an understanding of scientific research across the UK and overseas. This person will be highly numerate, organized and methodical in their approach and will see this role as a fantastic opportunity to bring creative ideas and experience to the table, in order to make a real and lasting difference in the research led field of musculoskeletal and related inflammatory diseases in the UK and overseas.
 

The trust is committed to creating a culture where diversity is embedded in all its activities and values dignity, mutual respect and inclusivity at work and where unlawful discrimination is eliminated.
