The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), part of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) are seeking a Senior Economic Evaluation Manager.

    This is an exciting opportunity to join a dynamic performance and evaluation team (PET) at the heart of EPSRC, working closely with a team of highly skilled Economists across UKRI.

    With a budget of around £8bn a year, UKRI as a whole invests in world leading science and technology, from supercomputers to robotics, and from Artificial Intelligence to biomedical research.

    Our portfolio covers a vast range of fields from healthcare technologies to structural engineering, manufacturing to mathematics, advanced materials to chemistry.

    As one of the UKRI Councils, EPSRC has a key role to play in helping to deliver UKRI objectives, primarily to drive better economic and social outcomes for the UK through research and innovation.

    The role of the Senior Economic Evaluation Manager is to work with colleagues in the Performance and Evaluation Team and across UKRI to support the development of robust socio-economic evaluations as well as support the development of robust business cases (often asking for significant funding of around £100M plus).

    This role will work closely with EPSRC and UKRI Portfolio Managers and Analysts, with a strong focus on supporting project teams through the sharing of best practice in economic analysis.

    Working with portfolio managers and external consultancies to ensure economic analysis within EPSRCs evaluations is robust, independently accepted and well defined; This includes providing advice to those responsible for commissioning and delivery of external evaluations/economic analyses to help ensure the most robust and credible economic analysis is carried out throughout our reporting practices.

    Working with UKRI colleagues to support when needed the economic analysis within EPSRCs business cases, ensuring that analysis is robust, independently accepted and well defined, and makes the strongest case possible for available Government funding.

    Working with colleagues to directly run economic analysis on available data to produce new insights for the benefit of the whole of UKRI where possible.

    This may look at our monitoring data in new ways and provide insight into the broader socio-economic impact of EPSRC research.

    Working closely with the Head of Performance and Evaluation and the wider PET team to ensure EPSRCs approach remains fit for purpose, working to adapt to and influence thinking in a changing Governmental and UKRI landscape; with new high-level monitoring and evaluation policies and recommended approaches being formed.

    Working autonomously but in close collaboration with UKRI economists to develop and deliver a high-quality work programme across priority areas.

    including EPSRC Executive Leadership Team and EPSRC advisory groups, UKRI analysis and strategic centre, academic and industrial contacts at all levels and external consultants delivering economic evaluations and other studies.
