Once identified, IPAs help to target conservation actions and sustainable management of plants.

This is an exciting opportunity to use academic research to drive global affordable housing impact, working with a UK-based international charity to build thematic expertise and generate new income for its work.

Globally, there are 1.2 billion people without somewhere decent to call home. Reall’s vision is housing markets in Africa and Asia that work for people, prosperity and planet, which it seeks to achieve through investing in affordable housing, using research and data to build evidence, and leveraging this to advocate for change. Reall has been a global leader in promoting affordable housing in Africa and Asia for over 30 years. Their work has transformed the lives of over 3 million people, created 200,000 jobs, brought clean water to 500,000 people and expanded sanitation to over a million. 

This position is part of a Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) funded by Innovate UK, aimed at driving impactful collaboration between academic expertise and industry. This 2-year KTP project reflects Reall’s ongoing investment in academic collaboration and commercial development. It will use the development of specialist gender- and climate-focussed knowledge to support Reall’s shift from reliance on a single funding source to a more diverse income model, including expansion of Reall’s consultancy services. The Associate will play a crucial role in this transformation by working with Reall and University of Warwick staff to: 

• Lead the integration of gender and climate innovations and best practices into Reall’s housing work. 

• Lead the development of frameworks to evaluate gender and climate impacts. 

• Lead the production of thought leadership materials to enhance Reall’s commercial reach and elevate its influence and standing within the sector. 

• Support the positioning of affordable housing as a global solution to gender and climate challenges, and Reall’s role within this. 

• Support the creation of a strategic business development plan that leverages climate and gender expertise to rapidly increase Reall’s grant and consultancy contract income streams 

• Establishing methods to assess and demonstrate the impact of housing programmes. 

This project is a unique opportunity to shape an innovative charity’s growth and global impact.  Designed to deliver meaningful impact for Reall, University of Warwick and the Associate themselves, the Associate will be at the forefront of driving real-world change and directly feeding into organisational decision making. With strong professional development support from Reall, University of Warwick and UKRI, this role is an ideal opportunity to grow in sectoral experience, raise an academic profile, and grow in leadership capacity. This is a chance to contribute to sustainable global development, shape the direction of an organisation, and support a high impact career. 

The KTP Associate will bring specialist knowledge and skills to investigate and integrate gender and climate considerations into affordable housing strategies. We are looking for a motivated and innovative individual, with the ability to apply academic insights to real-world challenges, and the potential to become a sector leader with the capacity to lead this project. 

Key attributes and skills of the ideal candidate include: 

• Expertise in gender studies, climate studies, international development, housing or a related field, with a strong understanding of these issues in global south contexts. We are especially interested in candidates with prior research or policy experience in international development and housing, and its intersections with climate and gender. 

• Analytical skills to design and evaluate frameworks that measure gender and climate impacts within housing projects. 

• Research experience, collaborating with academic researchers and development practitioners, with a proven track record of producing research that drives impact.

• Business development experience, managing or supporting business development activities (research grants or consultancy contracts), or working within the consultancy space. 

• Strategic thinking to create effective, action-oriented business development and impact evaluation methodologies. 

• Effective communication to present complex ideas clearly and persuasively to diverse audiences, including stakeholders and funders. 

• Adaptability and problem-solving abilities to drive the project’s success in a dynamic environment. 

• A collaborative mindset to work closely with Reall’s team and academic partners, contributing to thought leadership and strategic initiatives. 

Primarily based within Reall and its Coventry offices, you will collaborate with a dynamic team of Reall staff and University of Warwick academics to embed new gender and climate knowledge across the organisation’s operations and partnerships. This will be achieved through staff training, collaborative working, and the development of impactful resources. University of Warwick’s Politics and International Studies (PAIS) and Global Sustainable Development (GSD) departments will offer specialized academic support and guidance to ensure Reall remains a forward-thinking leader in affordable, sustainable housing, underpinned by world-class research. UKRI will simultaneously facilitate professional development through mentoring and cohort support with other KTP associates. 

This is a unique opportunity for someone passionate about creating meaningful change through gender and climate-responsive development. 

PAIS and GSD are interdisciplinary departments that sit within the University of Warwick’s Faculty of Social Sciences and Faculty of Arts respectively. Both departments share the view that the best research comes from looking at issues from a wide range of perspectives, inside and outside of academia, and from different fields of study. Together, both departments are committed to creating a supportive research environment where everyone can succeed. We believe that research is most impactful when it works towards improving lives around the world. 

Although based at Reall’s offices in Coventry, the Associate will be a University of Warwick staff member within PAIS. PAIS values diversity and is dedicated to promoting equality and challenging discrimination. The department has been awarded the Athena Swan Silver Award, a prestigious charter mark for the advancement of gender equality in higher education. We encourage applications from groups that are currently underrepresented in PAIS, including Black, Asian, and other ethnic minorities, women, people with disabilities, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Our aim is to provide the support needed for all our staff and students to thrive in the department.

2. About Save the Rhino International – leading the charge!

At Save the Rhino International, we believe rhinos are magnificent, in themselves and as champions of the incredible wild landscapes in which they live. And they are endangered. To thrive, both rhinos and people need a world that is healthy, diverse and resilient.

We connect people striving to conserve rhinos and their habitats with people who want to support that vital work, and we contribute our own knowledge and skills to the conservation effort. Every day we work with a wonderful community of passionate friends, partners and supporters, to ensure that all five species of rhinos thrive in the wild.

Our core values, on which we will never compromise, are Integrity, Collaboration and Determination. We express those values through how we behave and talk to the world – who we are: Friendly, Knowledgeable and Passionate.

Save the Rhino International was established as a UK-registered charity in 1994. In the financial year ending 31 March 2025, we raised £3.4 million in support of our conservation partners in Africa and Asia.
