If you think you are the right match for the following opportunity, apply after reading the complete description.
The Rees Centre, based at the University of Oxford’s Department of Education, is expanding with three exciting opportunities which will help the Centre step up its programme of academic research. The Centre produces research and evidence that enables practitioners, policy makers, and the research community to understand and improve children’s social care and education.
Following the launch of our new five-year strategy, we are seeking a Research Centre Manager, who will be an experienced project and people manager with exceptional organisational and relationship management skills. This person will drive effective and timely delivery of projects, bids and associated events and communications activity to promote the Centre’s work.
Our new strategy sets out our vision for a future where children and young people supported by Children’s Social Care (CSC) have more stable and robust relationships, better educational outcomes, and better lives. You would join a team of committed research and professional services staff drawn from various academic disciplines who have policy and practice experience in education and children’s social care. The Centre offers its staff a supportive and collaborative environment in which to produce high-quality research that has real world impact on professional practice, and on the lives of children and their caregivers.
