Job Description
Research and Evidence Manager
Department: Evidence
Employment Type: Permanent - Full Time
Location: London or Edinburgh
Reporting To: Phil Roughsedge
Compensation: £52,241 - £62,416 / year
Description
About the team and what we do
The NMC needs insight to choose the best approaches to regulation and evaluate the impact of our work. We also have a responsibility to share insights from our work as a regulator with others to help influence positive changes in the wider health and social care environment for the benefit of those receiving care.
The insight team at the NMC produces a lot of outputs to support more effective regulatory decision-making. These outputs, while often produced for very specific purposes, contain useful insights that would be of interest and helpful to others outside of the NMC.
Your role and impact
As Research and Evidence Manager you will lead the development and production of our flagship insight publications (including our Spotlight on Nursing and Midwifery publication) – a key part of which is translating our portfolio of insight outputs into coherent and compelling stories that contribute directly to the NMC’s corporate priorities and influencing objectives.
You’ll work collaboratively with colleagues and external partners to proactively identify gaps and influencing opportunities to inform NMC insights.
You’ll matrix manage other insight colleagues who are producing insights to feed into NMC outputs.
What you'll bring
You’ll be an experienced research, insight or evidence professional with a strong track record of turning complex information into clear, compelling narratives that influence decision-making and drive positive change.
You’ll be confident working with both quantitative and qualitative evidence, bringing together insights from multiple sources to identify key themes, trends and opportunities. You’ll have excellent writing and editing skills, with the ability to adapt your approach for different audiences, from senior leaders and policymakers to professional and public stakeholders.
You’ll be highly collaborative, building effective relationships across teams and with external partners to maximise the impact of our insight work. You’ll be comfortable working in a matrix environment, providing leadership and direction to colleagues while supporting the delivery of high-quality outputs.
You’ll bring strong project management skills, balancing multiple priorities and ensuring that publications are delivered to a high standard and on time. You’ll also be motivated by the opportunity to evaluate the impact of insight activity and continuously improve how evidence is used to support the NMC’s strategic goals.
Most importantly, you’ll share our commitment to fairness, equity and public protection, and be passionate about using evidence and insight to improve outcomes for people who use health and social care services across the UK.
