Wisdoms and Research Officer

5 months ago


Bridgend, United Kingdom Platfform Full time

The job of the Wisdoms and Research Officer is to provide research capacity for the work of the New Systems Alliance (a partnership between Platfform, Mayday Trust and Homeless Network Scotland) across the UK.

Mayday Trust developed the Wisdoms approach with the people they support. The approach is a deep listening exercise, building on ethnographic principles to understand what matters to people across all levels of an organisation. Initially designed to listen to people who are going through tough times, increasingly it is used to fully understand the real experiences of people who interact with a service or organisation.

The New System Alliance works to create system change across the UK - and having a Wisdoms and Research Officer to help generate evidence and impetus for that change is a crucial part of that.

The role will be expected to operate in line with Platfform’s values, as well as the Mayday Person-led, Transitional and Strengths-based principles. The role will be principally focused within Wales, with some work with English organisations - largely conducted remotely.
