Contribute to the preparation of publications, reports, and other dissemination outputs, including plain English versions to support the accessible dissemination of research findings.

Consider the public engagement and impact of the research and contribute to relevant activities where appropriate.

The role also offers training and development opportunities to support progression to future Research Assistant positions, along with guidance from the line manager and project team, and may include the chance to contribute to an application for an NIHR-funded PhD studentship in open competition.

You should apply if

Experience of conducting academic research, for example at undergraduate or master's level, in a field relevant to this role.
Knowledge of a range of research methods and techniques, with the ability to apply them effectively.
The ability to analyse information and data and communicate findings clearly, both verbally and in writing.
Strong digital and IT skills, including experience of using online tools and social media to support research, communication and engagement activities.
Good organisational skills, with the ability to manage your own workload and resources effectively to ensure projects are delivered on time.
Excellent communication skills, with the confidence to explain complex information through presentations, demonstrations and written materials.
The ability to work independently, using your initiative while seeking guidance when needed.
A genuine interest in adult social care research and a commitment to generating meaningful impact in this area.
The willingness to travel to the Bristol office and other locations as required for meetings, events and research activities.
