Associate Director – Research & Evaluation – Employment, Welfare and Skills

Our client is a global research agency known for its thought leadership and polling. They continue to achieve fantastic successes and growth in their public and commercial research practice. They are keen to add an Associate Director with experience in research and evaluation to help deliver high-quality and impactful end-to-end research and evaluation solutions to their clients.
This role sits within their social research practice, specifically in the ESW team, and significant experience in this field is sought. You will already be an Associate Director and pride yourself on delivering actionable results that impact policy making. You will have the opportunity to work on some of the most interesting and impactful research and evaluation studies in this area.
Applicants must have a relevant social research and/or evaluation consultancy background and be interested in working on a range of research (quantitative/qualitative) and evaluations.
The main responsibilities will include:
* Leading proposals and revenue generation
* Contributing to the successful management of contracts with key UK government departments
* Leading studies and growing relationships with clients
* Delivering a range of research and evaluation projects through the full project cycle
* Supporting and developing skills and capabilities among junior team members
* Signing off deliverables (proposals, research/evaluation tools, presentations, and reports)
* Developing a strong understanding of clients’ needs and seeking opportunities to grow the business
This role will suit candidates who enjoy working closely with clients and often delivering at a fast pace. We welcome interest from people with either a research or evaluation background, though experience in delivering evaluations within ESW is required. We are looking for someone with:
* Proven experience of delivering research and evaluation projects through the full project cycle, from design to developing conclusions and recommendations
* Proficiency in both qualitative and quantitative research (mixed methods)
* Experience of writing winning proposals and delivering projects within the Employment, Welfare, and Skills policy areas
