Job description

About the Role

The UKRI Funding Policy and Engagement Team sits within the UKRI Funding Service and leads the development and delivery of consistent funding policy and process across the nine UKRI Councils.

We design and maintain the policies and processes that underpin the full funding lifecycle for research, innovation and training awards, governing over £4 billion of investment each year. These policies shape eligibility, application requirements, assessment processes, funding decisions and post-award grant management.

While Councils retain control of their strategies and budgets, our team provides the overarching policy framework that simplifies, aligns and improves funding practice based on user needs.

This role is central to the teams mission, contributing to:

Developing and delivering research and innovation policies across all Councils and cross-cutting funds, balancing harmonisation with targeted interventions.
Creating and implementing policies critical to the success of the UKRI Funding Service (TFS) and wider organisational priorities, including the UKRI Strategy and government commitments to reduce bureaucracy.
Connecting policy, operations, strategy, product teams and the research community to ensure a coherent and user-centred funding system.
Strengthening engagement with the research and innovation community to bring external perspectives into policy development.
Designing and delivering engagement approaches that support evidence-based policy development and effective implementation of the Funding Service.

Your Responsibilities

Funding Policy

Support the development, simplification and implementation of UKRI funding policy, using evidence and user insight to shape recommendations.
Produce high‑quality policy papers, briefings and proposals for senior decision‑making forums, ensuring policies are coherent, deliverable and user‑centred.

Engagement & Insight

Design and deliver engagement activities (e.g. workshops, forums, surveys, user testing) to inform policy development and Funding Service improvements, acting as a trusted advisor on user‑centred engagement approaches.
Analyse engagement feedback and generate clear insights, including You Said, We Did reporting, to influence decisions and drive continuous improvement.

Communications & Content

Produce clear, accessible communications on policy changes, operational improvements and service performance.
Develop and maintain guidance, FAQs and digital content for applicants, reviewers and research organisations, ensuring accessibility and consistency.

Stakeholder & Relationship Management

Build and maintain strong relationships across the nine Councils and with key external stakeholders, representing the Funding Policy and Engagement team at meetings and networks.
Regular UK travel should be expected as part of this role, particularly to deliver and support workshops, events, and stakeholder engagement activities across the research and innovation community.

Monitoring, Reporting & Team Support

Track engagement activity and contribute insights to dashboards, performance reports and impact reviews.
Support and deputise for Policy Leads and the Associate Director, confidently facilitating meetings and discussions, challenging assumptions constructively, managing expectations, and ensuring actions are agreed and progressed.

Please note that there will also be occasional travel required as part of this role.
