Our team is diverse, talented, sensitive, and creative. We value building meaningful connection amongst ourselves, and with our partners and stakeholders.

The role
As a Senior Researcher, you will take a leading role in our research programmes with parliamentarians and journalists, while also contributing to our work with the general public and bespoke client projects. You will act as a trusted partner to clients and a point of guidance for junior colleagues.
You will lead on our nfpPolitics programmes – quarterly surveys of 100 MPs and an annual survey of 100 members of the House of Lords, plus annual surveys of MSPs in Scotland, MSs in Wales and MLAs in Northern Ireland. These programmes give charity clients clear, evidence-based insight into how they are seen at Westminster and in the devolved parliaments: tracking awareness of organisations and their campaigns, the actions parliamentarians have taken in response, and how effective they consider those organisations to be. Subscribers also receive unfiltered open comments from parliamentarians and access to broader political intelligence data – covering what MPs see as the biggest challenges facing the sector, the factors that influence whether they will support a campaign, and which organisations have impressed them in Parliament.
You will also oversee nfpPress, our annual survey of 150 UK journalists across print, digital and broadcast media. This gives charity communications teams systematic insight into how the media perceives them and their work – not just whether journalists know who they are, but whether they want to work with them, and what would make them more likely to.
Alongside this tracking work, you will contribute to a varied portfolio of bespoke projects for individual charity clients – from applicant perception research for funders, to supporter benchmarking and message testing. In practice, this means working across a wide range of topics and methodologies, helping charities make better strategic decisions.

· Contributing to the design and delivery of bespoke projects for a wide range of charity clients, spanning applicant perception research, supporter benchmarking, message testing and audience insight work
· Writing and presenting client reports and debrief presentations, with clear conclusions and actionable recommendations
· Line management of a Research Officer or Research Assistant: writing objectives, conducting appraisals and supporting their professional development
· Contributing to business development, including helping to scope and write proposals and participating in pitch meetings
· Contributing to the broader life of the company, including our monthly Knowledge Meeting, company blog and Insights events
Who we are looking for:

· Experience of managing clients or other external relationships

· Ability to work collaboratively and flexibly as part of a team
What nfpResearch delivers to you:
· A varied and senior role at the UK’s leading research consultancy working exclusively in the not-for-profit sector
· The opportunity to lead research that shapes how charities engage with Parliament, the media and their audiences
· The chance to be an integral part of a small and dynamic company
· 25 days paid holiday per year, plus bank holidays and days between Christmas and New Year
· Training for the MRS Advanced Certificate qualification and a bonus if you pass the exam
Please send a 1-page cover letter and your CV (no more than two pages). Your cover letter is your opportunity to tell us why you are interested in the role and what you would bring to nfpResearch. We are particularly interested in hearing about your experience in a client-facing role, your knowledge of the not-for-profit sector, and your understanding of how charities engage with Parliament and the media.
