We are the University of Cumbria, a place where people are at the heart of all we do, where enriching the lives of our students, staff and the communities we serve means we make a difference that really matters.
Now is a very exciting time to be joining us as an intern researcher.

A new study, involving 10 million graduates on professional networking site LinkedIn, has rated University of Cumbria as being in the Top 10 for developing business leaders and 14th overall in the Top 50 universities for business.

The Capital on Tap study shows that the university, alongside prestigious institutions such as University of Oxford and London School of Economics & Political Science (LSE), is producing a higher percentage of c-suite executives than other UK universities.

This latest report comes on the back of a study in 2020 by Hitachi Capital Invoice Finance which ranked University of Cumbria as third in the north for students going on to start or manage a business.

In 2020, the university was also ranked as amongst the best in the UK for graduate employment and top in the North West with 96% of students getting a job or going on to further study within 15 months of graduating.

It was also ranked 1st in the UK and top 10 worldwide for the quality of its education in the Times Higher Education Global Impact Rankings 2020.

This is an exciting opportunity for a graduate or current student at the University of Cumbria to gain valuable work experience through an internship with a local company.

You will be employed by the University but work with Clare Dainty Consulting for the purpose of conducting research to support the development of a new service - Family First, a service to support separated fathers across Cumbria and the UK.

We are looking for someone who is proactive, logical, and self-motivated with the ability to undertake desk-based research and present results.

We expect you to have strong research and communication skills and an interest in market research and new service development.

You may also have an interest in family law and/or social work.

The post is part time for a total of up to 140 hours and the overall project must be completed by April 2023.

This is a flexible working opportunity, which can fit around student studies and work/home life commitments.
