  • Contribute to reports, presentations and research outputs shared both internally and externally

  • Get involved in school visits, observations and surveys to bring research to life

  • Present your work at conferences, seminars and events, building your confidence and professional profile

You will have the space to work autonomously, while still being supported as part of a collaborative team environment.

  • A real sense of purpose where your work will influence national education.

  • Opportunities for growth and professional development.

  • A benefits package including up to 11.5 percent pension contribution, BUPA healthcare support, wellbeing programmes and volunteering opportunities.

  • 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays, increasing with service, along with discretionary Christmas closure days.

  • A Master's degree (completed or in progress) in education, psychology, social sciences or a related field

  • Experience using qualitative and/or quantitative research methods

  • Strong communication skills, able to explain research clearly to different audiences

  • A collaborative mindset, balanced with the ability to manage your own work

  • Curiosity and critical thinking, especially about how assessments work and their wider impact

  • Experience of using R would be beneficial

You will also be someone who is adaptable, open to change, and comfortable working in a fast-moving research environment.
