Job description

Use your experience to help improve health and social care services across the UK 

HSR UK is a small but ambitious charity dedicated to strengthening the role of health and social care research in policy and practice. We bring together researchers, service leaders, clinicians, policymakers, patient partners and others, helping research to drive real improvement in the NHS and social care. 

We are now seeking three new Trustees to join our friendly and committed Board and help shape the next phase of our development. 

About HSR UK 

HSR UK is the collective voice for health services and social care research in the UK. 
We: 

  • Connect and convene researchers, policymakers, managers, clinicians, and lived‑experience partners.
  • Support the use of high‑quality research in practice and policy. 
  • Influence national agendas to help health and social care research thrive. 

We have around 40 organisational members, run an annual conference attracting 350+ delegates, and lead work on mentoring, special interest groups, and major thematic projects such as equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) and workforce research. We are hosted by the Nuffield Trust but we are a separate organisation. 

Why join us? 

This is an exciting moment in HSR UK’s growth. As a Trustee, you will help shape strategy, guide organisational development, and contribute to a mission that genuinely improves health and care for people and communities. 

Our Board is welcoming, collaborative and curious. We particularly encourage applicants from diverse backgrounds, from outside the research community, and from people with lived experience of health or care services. 

We welcome applications from anyone regardless of disability, ethnicity, heritage, gender, sexuality, religion or socio‑economic background. We are committed to inclusive practices and will make reasonable adjustments throughout the process. 

Who we’re looking for 

You do not need to be an academic or professional researcher. We welcome a wide range of expertise, including people newer to board roles.With the board meeting mainly online, we also welcome candidates from all over the UK. 

We’re especially interested in candidates with skills or experience in: 

  • Business development or income generation (e.g., grants, commissioning, fundraising, third sector) 
  • Health or social care delivery, including clinical, managerial or lived‑experience backgrounds 
  • Public involvement, co‑production or inclusive research 
  • Finance or governance 

You will also bring: 

  • An interest in how research can improve health and care 
  • Good listening skills and openness to diverse perspectives 
  • A willingness to constructively challenge and be challenged 
  • Enthusiasm for our aims and values, including a commitment to EDI 

What the role involves 

As a Trustee, you will contribute to: 

  • Setting and monitoring HSR UK’s strategic direction 
  • Ensuring strong governance and compliance 
  • Approving major decisions, policies, and annual accounts 
  • Considering and managing organisational risk 
  • Actively participating in board meetings and reading papers in advance 
  • Leading on a specific area of work (e.g., finance, conferences, events, governance), depending on your interests and skills 

Practical details 

Time commitment 

  • Around ½–1 day per month 
  • Five 90‑minute board meetings per year (online) plus our AGM in the autumn
  • Option to join sub‑committees (1–2 meetings per year) 
  • Opportunity to help shape our annual conference and attend the conference in person

Location 

  • Meetings are online (MS Teams); our annual conference rotates around UK universities (2026: University of Manchester) 

Remuneration 

  • This is a voluntary role.  We reimburse trustee out of pocket expenses, including travel to meetings and conference attendance 

Term 

  • Three years, renewable for up to three consecutive terms 

How to apply

Closing date: Tuesday 17th February at 5pm
