Research and Evaluation Consultant

Job Details

Calling all research and evaluation Ninjas!

Do you have a proven record of designing and delivering research projects? Are you passionate about the role of evidence in improving the effectiveness of public policies and government services? Then join the Winning Moves team and work with us to help our clients to bring about positive, transformative societal change. 

We are Winning Moves, a fast-growing research and evaluation consultancy with evidence at the heart of everything we do. Governments trust our insights to inform their policy and service decisions and improvement. Our thinking challenges the status quo, and through the development and implementation of robust, high quality research and evaluation, we help our clients to tackle some of societies toughest challenges.

We need an authoritative and proven researcher and evaluator to join our crack team of Ninjas.

Some of the things we’d like you to do includes:

  • Designing and delivering robust research methodologies. This could involve primary, secondary and mixed methods; making use of qualitative and quantitative data.  You will consider the advantages and disadvantages of different methodologies to the questions at hand and design a solution that balances client need, best practice and practicality of implementation and resource.
  • Intelligently and accurately interpret and communicate research findings, and consider their implications. Astute, analytical and articulate, you will intelligently draw conclusions from data and effectively disseminate findings and recommendations through a variety of means (including concise reports, stakeholder workshops or presentations).
  • Commit to data quality, and high-quality dissemination. You will deliver projects to excellent quality standards and meet both client and internal requirements, continually seeking and ensuring improvements from a methodological, technological, operational and profitable point of view.
  • Be instrumental in our growth. With an ability to nurture client relationships, you will also ensure repeat business through exceptional quality, insight and value. Alongside this, you will support our growth through identifying and creating opportunities to grow existing and win new business. This means that you will write compelling, well framed, deliverable and winning proposals.

A bit about yourself: as well being able to do all the things mentioned above, you will have experience of designing and delivering research and evaluation projects in a commercial environment, bringing with you, a broad methodological portfolio including quantitative and qualitative approaches and the ability to draw this evidence together. You will have excellent critical appraisal skills alongside an ability to work collaboratively with others, guide clients and get the job done. Evaluation geeks are particularly welcome. 

What you can expect at Winning Moves: the opportunity to deliver high profile, politically strategic and complex research and evaluation projects. It is a fast-paced but intellectually rewarding environment where you will work alongside a great bunch of committed, clever and ambitious people who reflect our values in all that they do: different, better, faster, agile, ethical, fun. We also promise you an employer that invests in your career, consults you and gives you space to do amazing work.

Get in touch: If this sounds like you, then email recruitment@winningmoves.com with your CV and a summary letting us know why you’re the best Ninja for the job.
