The role is also key to using narrative data to demonstrate this impact through creating case studies and researcher profiles, thus contributing to external communication of impact of our work, portfolio development and decision making. The role also supports the Evaluation Programme Manager in delivering the grants evaluation programme, and other MEL activities.
