You will lead high-level engagement across both regions, with a particular focus on Yorkshire and Humber. In this region, you will help Inclusion North reconnect, build strategic partnerships, and become a visible and valued voice in system-level spaces.

You will take a lead in representing Inclusion North across a range of regional spaces, including Communities of Practice, local authority-led forums, and, where appropriate, ICB-related groups.

About the role

As Research and Insight Manager, you’ll play a key role in championing the voice of our customers, making sure their needs, views and expectations are fully understood and placed at the heart of everything we do at British Heart Foundation (BHF).

You’ll work closely with teams across the organisation, including brand and marketing, fundraising, retail and medical, acting as their research insight partner. You’ll help shape insight plans, lead research projects, and deliver findings that directly inform strategic and operational decisions.

In this role, you’ll be responsible for:

• Partnering with colleagues to convert complex and diverse business needs into focused insight plans, aligning the right research mix to products, audiences and priorities
• Managing research projects from start to finish,  ensuring they’re delivered on time, within budget and to a high standard
• Making insights accessible, engaging and actionable for colleagues across BHF
• Influencing decision-making by embedding customer insight into everyday thinking
• Identifying opportunities to improve research processes and ways of working

You’ll be part of our Customer Insight and Analysis team, a collaborative group of researchers and analysts. Together, we ensure BHF’s strategy is driven by high-quality, timely intelligence, and that colleagues across the organisation have access to the insight they need to grow, innovate and improve our products and services.

Working arrangements

We are recruiting two Research and Insight Managers; one on permanent basis and one as 12-month Fixed Term Contract. 

This is a hybrid role, where your work will be split between your home and at least one day per week, on average, in our London Office. This may vary from time to time, so you’ll need to work in a flexible way to unlock your best work for our cause.

About you

You’ll bring solid experience from a dedicated market or social research role, whether client-side or agency,  with a strong track record of using a broad range of qualitative, quantitative and secondary research methods such as surveys, focus groups and interviews. You’ve led a wide variety of projects, including brand tracking, customer satisfaction, creative testing and proposition development, and you’re confident working across different business areas to meet a range of organisational needs.

You’re comfortable managing research from start to finish – from writing briefs and designing surveys or discussion guides, to overseeing fieldwork, conducting analysis and presenting findings. You’ve worked closely with external research agencies, managing procurement and delivery, and you know how to translate complex methodologies and data into clear, actionable insights that resonate with colleagues at all levels, including those without a research background.

You’ll bring:

• Expertise in selecting and tailoring research methods to varied business questions
• A deep understanding of ethical research practices, GDPR, and inclusive research approaches
• Strong questionnaire design skills and experience using survey software
• Excellent communication and consultancy skills, with the ability to influence and advise stakeholders at all levels
• Proven ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously, prioritising effectively and delivering to a high standard
• ​A proactive mindset, always looking for ways to improve processes and working practices

Experience in a health-related field, managing customer research communities or panels, and line management would be a bonus but it’s not essential.

We’re investing in ground-breaking research that will get us closer than ever to a world where everyone has a healthier heart for longer.
