IN A NUTSHELL

As Embedded Research Lead, you will support the delivery of the Personal Grants Project, which provides unconditional cash transfers to people who have had experiences of homelessness.

We are looking for someone who expertly blends community-engaged research expertise with practical problem-solving skills to enable and facilitate data collection, particularly in the context of Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs). Your work will involve working very closely with our service delivery partners and people participating in the trial. As a key member of our Programmes Team, you will also work closely with colleagues in our Evidence & Data and Implementation Teams, as well as our academic partners to spot and respond quickly to project opportunities and risks. The role demands a dedicated commitment to collaboration and an understanding of the nuanced dynamics of generating evidence in the field. The ideal candidate will embody excellence in multi-way relationships to drive impactful outcomes.
