Job content

This is a brilliant opportunity to join Public Policy|Southampton who are a diverse, creative and agile team at the heart of a research intensive, Russell Group university. Our mission is to enhance the ’local, sub-national, national and international public policy impact of research conducted at the University of Southampton’. In practice this means building connections and capacity for academics and policymakers to engage in mutually beneficial dialogue to address the challenges our communities face. Our work spans across all faculties and disciplines at the University of Southampton and includes engaging with policy actors ranging from local councillors through to the United Nations.

Successful applicants will be motivated self-starters with an eye for detail who ideally possess a good understanding of the UK legislative process and have an interest in how local and national decision makers use evidence. Candidates will demonstrate excellent communication skills across a number of different mediums including formal written reports, through engaging presentations, producing content for Social and, of course, in person. Full training in bespoke systems and working practices will be provided in world class facilities. As a hybrid team we have an expectation of full-time team members being on campus at least two days a week.

We strongly encourage applicants from groups traditionally under-represented in the UK higher education sector (you can find out more about our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion action plan here). We actively encourage applicants seeking flexible working/job share employment to accommodate caring/volunteering/educational commitments.
