The MEL Officer is responsible for developing and maintaining data collection tools and processes, with a focus on award holder reporting, which we use to collect evidence of outputs, outcomes and impact of Royal Society’s grants funding. 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.
