**About the Role**

The Blavatnik School of Government is seeking a Research and Policy Officer to work on an exciting collaboration between the Government Outcome Lab (GO Lab) and Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA).

GO Lab and CIPFA have jointly developed an innovative research agenda, with the nature of their cross-disciplinary projects addressing contemporary concerns such as public policy evaluation, social impact measurement and public financial management. This role will help the partners to build capacity in the co-design and co-production of practical tools and insights that can improve public policy outcomes across a broad range of themes.

With direction from the GO Lab Economist and CIPFA Chief Economist, the postholder will manage multiple projects working with practitioners and researchers, and be responsible for analysing data and presenting project results for multiple audiences.
