HDRC Project Officer Role Profile

We need to fill a really important role in our team and it would be great if it was you

We need a full time project officer to undertaking a range of work that aids the smooth running of a new research programme, which is a joint venture between Plymouth City Council and the University of Plymouth.

We need all of our team members, irrespective of their role to be passionate about learning and understanding more about the wider determinants of health and supporting colleagues to make good decision with taxpayers’ money. We want someone who is keen to play their part in supporting the best use of the funds by being an excellent project officer.

Someone with good interpersonal skills, systematic in their approach, has a great understanding of the needs for good governance, audit and record keeping is essential. The job will include keeping track of finances, ensuring the governance, reporting and audit requirements are met, supporting the recruitment of team members, communications and maintaining a good evidence bank of all the work.

You will be a good communicator, working with colleagues in Public Health, the University, the NHS and the wider voluntary and community sector. All have different styles and ways of working Key working relationships will be with all of the directorates within Plymouth City Council, researchers, research champions and the Programme management team.

The Collaborative is led by the Office of the Director of Public Health, working closely with key academics from the University of Plymouth, all PCC directorates, the NHS and the wider voluntary and community sector.

**Background**

The Public Health Directorate in Plymouth is excited to have been awarded a grant worth £5 million to be spent in Plymouth over the next five years. The funding has been awarded to increase the amount of research undertaken and to assist the Plymouth City Council in making sure that decisions on what to fund and commission are made with a sound evidence base. We will do this by offering research expertise to the various directorates to develop research proposals but also support PCC colleagues to better use existing research to inform decision making and recommendations.

Research related to understanding how we shape services to meet people’s needs is sometimes limited and means that we don’t always get it right for our community. For example, doctors might want dieticians to help reduce childhood obesity, but local research shows that family need support around life issues, and support with the cost of living before they can consider the obesity issues, so a different approach is needed to tackle the long term need to reduce obesity.

As part of our commitment to promoting equality we offer guaranteed interviews to those who meet the essential criteria and are considered disabled, have been in Plymouth City Council care or are an Armed Forces Service Leaver within the last two years.
