o you want to use your research skills to drive social change?

At HCT, we’re showing how lived experience can transform public health. With almost 500 staff and volunteers working across every NHS area and prison in England — and in parts of Scotland and Wales — we connect some of the most marginalised communities to the services that too often miss them.

We’re now seeking a Research & Impact Manager to lead a programme that places inclusion, impact and lived experience at the heart of research. You’ll shape and deliver studies that improve understanding, influence local and national policy, and demonstrate how peer-led approaches can achieve real health equity.

About the role

You’ll manage and develop our incredible team of peer researchers, supervise our Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) Associate with the University of Essex, and build partnerships across academia, government, the NHS, and the voluntary sector. 

You’ll also design and deliver evaluations of our programmes, help evidence how lived experience-led services can improve equity in health and care, and support funding bids and grant applications, and the dissemination of impactful research.

About you

You’ll bring both strategic insight and hands-on research skills, ideally with a strong qualitative background. You’ll be comfortable working across academic, policy, and lived experience settings — and you’ll share our deep commitment to social justice and inclusion health.

We’re looking for someone who is:

• Passionate about peer research and the power of lived experience
• Skilled in designing and delivering research and evaluation projects
• Collaborative and relationship-focused, with experience across academia, the NHS or the voluntary sector
• Able to mentor and empower others, including peer researchers and research colleagues
• A clear communicator who can translate research into impact
