About Adolescent Health Study

The Adolescent Health Study (AHS) is an ambitious new UKRI-funded initiative to establish a prospective, longitudinal population study that will generate a globally leading open science data platform and research resource. AHS aims to recruit at least 100,000 young people aged eight to 18 years from across the UK and to follow their mental and physical health and wellbeing over at least 10 years. It plans to collect data through questions and measures; to obtain bio-samples for a wide range of genomic and other high-throughput assays; and to capture linked data relevant to health and wellbeing from participants’ health, education and other administrative records. Recruitment will take place mainly through schools. There will be a strong emphasis on engaging with and involving young people, schools, parents and other relevant stakeholders in the design and delivery of the study, as well as on including young people that represent as wide as possible a range of backgrounds, experiences and characteristics.

About The Role
Dementia is the UK’s biggest killer. Almost one million people are living with dementia today. This is expected to rise to 1.4 million by 2040. Behind every statistic is a person, a family, and a life that matters.
At Alzheimer’s Society, we are working to change this. We are committed to ending the devastation caused by dementia. Could innovation be part of the answer?
Innovation turns ideas into real change. It takes research out of reports and into everyday life. Through our Innovation Programme, we work with entrepreneurs, researchers, clinicians, and people affected by dementia. Together, we develop and scale new ideas. So far, we have supported over 60 innovations, reaching more than 1.5 million people and helping partners secure over £13.5 million in follow-on funding.
What could you help make possible?
As Innovation Assistant, you will help make this work happen. You will report to a Senior Innovator and join a small, supportive Innovation team within Research and Innovation. Your role is to keep things running smoothly day to day. You will support events, relationships, and ensure the detail behind our work is clear, accurate, and organised.
Dementia devastates lives. Could your work help change that?
What you’ll do
You will help hold the moving parts together so the team can focus on impact. What does that look like in practice?
You will:

- Help our innovation community stay connected across programmes, events, workshops, and showcases
- Support planning and delivery of events such as workshops, conferences, and meetings. What needs to be ready on the day?
- Provide day-to-day admin support, including inbox management, meeting scheduling, agendas, action tracking, and keeping records in order
- Keep stakeholder information accurate and up to date so others can rely on it
- Help prepare presentations, reports, and materials that make ideas easy to understand
- Support financial processes, including invoices, budget tracking, and clear record keeping

About you
We are looking for someone organised, curious, and comfortable working across different tasks and teams. You do not need to have done everything before. Can you learn quickly and adapt when priorities change?
We welcome applications from people who may not meet every requirement but are keen to grow into the role.
You might enjoy this role if you:

- Can work across teams to support complex projects, helping bring structure to competing priorities
- Are comfortable with data and digital systems, or willing to learn. How confident are you with IT tools?
- Have supported events in some way, such as planning, coordination, logistics, budgeting, or engagement
- Are a collaborative team player who supports others and shares workloads when things get busy
- Can work at pace in a complex environment, staying calm and organised when priorities shift

Alongside this, you bring strong organisation, attention to detail, clear communication, and a genuine interest in improving how things are done.
Interviews are provisionally scheduled to take place on Friday 17th July via MS Teams.

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the Impact and Grant Communications function during a year of strategic transition, ensuring teams remain focused, supported and aligned around organisational priorities.
• Provide leadership and oversight across impact measurement, evaluation and grant communications activity, ensuring high-quality delivery across the department.
• Support the development of strong foundations for the first year of the charity’s new strategy, helping shape processes, priorities and ways of working alongside the senior leadership team.
• Oversee how the charity measures, evaluates and communicates impact, ensuring evidence and insight are used effectively to inform decision-making and storytelling.
• Lead and support teams responsible for communicating the impact of grant funding across fundraising, communications and external audiences.
• Build strong relationships with senior colleagues, researchers, hospital partners, Trustees and external stakeholders, acting as a trusted and collaborative partner.
• Support strategic communications activity linked to major organisational priorities, including high-value funding cases, reporting and thought leadership.
• Use insight, evidence and evaluation to help identify opportunities, strengthen strategic thinking and support continuous improvement across the organisation.
• Provide leadership, coaching and support to managers and specialist teams, creating an environment where people feel empowered, informed and able to do their best work.
• Represent the directorate at senior meetings, committees and external events as required.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

• Leadership experience within a charity, healthcare, research, policy or related environment.
• Experience leading teams through periods of change, growth or organisational transition.
• Strong strategic thinking and prioritisation skills, with the ability to balance immediate delivery with longer-term organisational goals.
• Excellent relationship management and influencing skills, including experience working with senior stakeholders and partners.
• Experience communicating complex information clearly and effectively to a range of audiences.
• Experience leading or overseeing complex programmes, functions or cross-organisational projects.
