London, Greater London, United Kingdom TASO Full time

Location: Central London/hybrid. Candidates must have the right to work in the UK.

Term: Permanent. Full-time, 35 hours per week.

About TASO

The Centre for Transforming Access and Student Outcomes (TASO) is an affiliate What Works Centre, and part of the UK Government's What Works Movement. Our vision is to eliminate equality gaps in higher education (HE). Our mission is to improve lives through evidence-informed practice.

Our work focuses on the generation, synthesis and dissemination of high-quality evidence about effective practice in widening participation and student outcomes. We primarily focus on developing and disseminating causal evidence and encourage the sector to do the same by providing HE professionals access to research, toolkits, evaluation guidance, evaluation training and more to help improve equality within the sector.

The Role

The Evaluation Manager will work on TASO's Research and Evaluation (R&E) programme to develop a better understanding of what works to support widening participation and student success. With the support and guidance of the Head of Evaluation, the Evaluation Manager will lead the development and delivery of practical evaluation training courses, of a suite of high-quality resources and step-by-step guidance to support universities and colleges to better evaluate the activities and programmes they deliver. This will include developing evaluation guidance documents, pages for our website, webinars and training materials. The Evaluation Manager will design and deliver training based on these materials to a wide range of external stakeholders - e.g., widening participation and student support practitioners at higher education institutions.

They may also commission new projects to external partner organisations that are designed to develop evaluation guidance for practitioners, evaluators and researchers from multiple higher education institutions. They will work across these projects to manage and monitor progress, collate findings, analyse data and help steer the overall programme of work. They may also undertake internal research projects themselves - including synthesis of secondary research, conducting primary qualitative and quantitative research - working closely with the Chief Research Officer and other Research Managers in the team.

The role will involve substantial stakeholder management, liaison with various interested parties outside TASO, convening of stakeholder groups and supporting training sessions. The Evaluation Manager will have strong communication skills and be able to effectively deliver their evaluation training content, clearly convey complex research findings, articulate and promote complex quantitative information and advanced evaluation methods (particularly causal impact evaluation methods), and support TASO to influence broader policy discussions.
