Are you passionate about turning data into stories that inspire change? The Medical Research Foundation is seeking a strategic and analytical Senior Research Impact Manager to lead our monitoring and evaluation efforts ensuring we can demonstrate the real-world impact of the research we fund.

This is a high-profile role at the heart of our mission. You’ll develop and implement frameworks, analyse outcomes, and communicate insights to shape our research strategy and inspire donors. If you thrive on evidence, storytelling, and strategic influence, this is your opportunity to make a lasting difference.

Why this role matters

We fund the brightest minds to tackle the biggest challenges in human health. But to keep doing so, we need to show the world that our funding makes a difference. Your work will help us prove our impact by capturing outcomes, evaluating effectiveness, and sharing compelling stories that drive support and shape future funding.

You will:

• Develop and implement research monitoring and evaluation systems and tools that align with our strategy.
• Oversee and review research reporting, following up with researchers using structured M&E tools to capture key impact data and stories.
• Lead on impact reporting and, working closely with our Fundraising and Communications functions, tell compelling stories of our research impact to the public and our donor base.

About You

You are a data-driven thinker with a passion for medical research and a talent for turning evidence into action. You are confident leading projects, managing data, and communicating complex ideas with clarity and purpose.

You bring:

• Experience of monitoring and evaluation, impact assessment, and the collection, analysis, reporting and management of data, ideally in medical research
• Familiarity with the UK biomedical research landscape
• Excellent interpersonal, communication, IT and data visualisation skills
• Line management expertise

• 30 days' holiday plus bank holidays
• 12% employer pension contribution + life assurance
• Generous other benefits
• Wellbeing support and flexible working culture

This is a full-time post, but we are happy to consider a part-time contract (min 0.8 FTE). 

We value spending time working in-person to develop strong connections with each other and with our mission, so you will be based at our central London office for a minimum of three days a week if you are full-time (Monday, Tuesday, and either Wednesday or Thursday) with the option to work remotely for the remainder.  If you are part-time, you will be office-based for at least 50% of your time.

As part of an experienced team, this role will promote hepatitis C awareness, blood borne virus testing and referral to treatment, for people living with hepatitis C. The role will support volunteer peers and increase the project’s reach to underserved communities. You’ll be providing vital harm reduction interventions including needle, syringe and naloxone provision across Bristol & Severn.

We value creativity, innovation, and compassion. We encourage applications from people with lived experience. Full support, coaching and training will be given. 

This role is responsible for the administration of the grant management process including managing external reviews, communicating with funded researchers about project reports, contracting new research projects and responding to funding enquires, as well as the organisation of the Research Committee meetings and review papers. This is an exciting time to join the team as we expand our funding schemes and work to achieve the charity’s main objective of funding Parkinson’s research to slow, stop and reverse Parkinson’s.
