About us

The King’s community is united by a commitment to serve society through academic excellence. King’s Strategy 2030 sets out our bold vision for the future, building on our strengths while responding to a rapidly changing world. The strategy focuses on delivering student success in and beyond the University; investing in research and education excellence that addresses global, national and local priorities; fostering innovation and entrepreneurship; and securing sustainable finances for a secure future. Through these priorities, and supported by a culture that values our people, services, campuses, partnerships and alumni, we will strengthen our impact and enable every student and member of our community to contribute meaningfully to society.

Within the Social Mobility & Widening Participation Department we believe all young people should be able to have high expectations for their future. This means equal access to education and career opportunities. We run programmes that aim to empower young people from under-represented backgrounds to access and succeed at university.

 We are part of the Students & Education Directorate, a collection of wide-ranging professional services in place to support King’s students and their education. As a directorate we manage the student lifecycle from application to graduation and beyond, to ensure a coherent and seamless student experience and effective administrative processes, working closely with King’s faculties to do so.

About the role

The Research and Evaluation Manager will work to position King’s College London as a sector leader on conducting institutional evaluation and research to understand how we can support students from underrepresented groups to access university and succeed at university. Our team aims to generate causal evidence, either through Randomised Controlled Trials or Quasi-experimental designs.

This is an exciting opportunity for candidates looking to work in research and evaluation in an applied context, and who wish to utilise their skills and expertise in quantitative and qualitative methods. This is an opportunity to grow your skills in generating and applying evidence to practice.

We encourage applications from candidates who have experience from both within and outside of the Higher Education sector where they can demonstrate the skills needed to succeed in this role as well as candidates from non-traditional backgrounds.

Key responsibilities

· Supervise and lead on a range of research & evaluation activities, including synthesis of secondary research; conducting qualitative, quantitative and/or survey designs; developing and delivering randomised controlled trials (and other experimental trials as appropriate), 

· Convey research findings, including complex quantitative information, in a clear and actionable way 

· Develop and maintain expertise in behavioural research and evaluation methodologies

· Work with academics and practitioners to test and trial new approaches to widening participation and student success 

· Line manage the Senior Research and Evaluation Adviser or Senior Data Officer

The above list of responsibilities may not be exhaustive, and the post holder will be required to undertake such tasks and responsibilities as may reasonably be expected within the scope and grading of the post.
