Health Innovation West of England has received a new five-year funding license from NHS England and we are excited to recruit an Evaluation Practitioner or an Evaluation Assistant to join our Evaluation and Insight Team.

This is a vital role within a small, specialist and friendly team who work on varied, interesting and complex projects, with the overall purpose of providing expertise to our programme management teams. This role will specifically focus on supporting evaluation of the Innovate Healthier Together programme.

Ideally you have relevant experience in delivering high quality research/evaluation and analysis that has contributed to improved knowledge and the improvement of services and have worked in a similar role in, for example, the research, health, charity or public sector.

This role provides programme support for a range of Evaluation & Insight projects.

The role also involves producing rapid evidence reviews to inform service design and delivery.

The role requires someone who can undertake activities in a range of health and care areas using transferable research or evaluation skills and knowledge.

Some key activities for the role will include (see job description for full details):
Provide advice on evaluations, evaluation methodologies, tools and approaches to support other staff to develop proportionate evaluation plans undertaking some basic evaluation activities such as surveys, interviews and focus groups.

Translate findings for a range of audiences including the public and support dissemination to mobilise effective innovation and transformation in health and care systems

Critically appraise evidence and interpret strengths and weakness of papers, epidemiological methods and findings

To receive informed consent from participants in research or evaluation studies when appropriate and delegated, and accurately document the process

To conduct field work such as interviews, focus groups, observations and other qualitative data collection with health and care users and staff as determined by the project

At the RUH we’re proud to put people at the heart of what we do, working together as one team to make a difference for our patients, each other, and our community. No matter what your role is, we value everyone’s contribution in supporting the exceptional, person-centred care we pride ourselves on.

We are committed to creating a compassionate and inclusive environment. This can be seen in our growing community of staff networks - celebrating successes and creating opportunities to listen and learn. We value our differences, champion kindness and civility, and truly believe that diversity makes us stronger.

A culture of learning, developing and innovating is the thread that runs throughout our whole organisation. We want to support you to thrive, taking your career to its full potential.

We value staff wellbeing, with a well-established programme of support. We believe in a holistic approach spanning all aspects of living a healthy life, including physical, emotional, spiritual and financial wellbeing. We’ve even got a pool

We are committed to supporting you and hope you want to join our team. In the meantime, find out more about living and working the beautiful historic city of Bath, learn about our extensive package of staff benefits, and read about how we’re providing healthcare fit for the future with the landmark Dyson Cancer Centre and our passion for research.
