    Default job background
    Description

    The National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) is funded by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC).

    We work in partnership with the NHS, universities, local government, other research funders, patients, and the public.

    The NIHR funds, enables, and delivers world-leading health and social care research that improves people's health and wellbeing and promotes economic growth.

    We are also a major funder of applied health research in low- and middle-income countries.

    The NIHR Global Health Research (GHR) portfolio, funded through Official Development Assistance (ODA), was established in 2016 and builds on NIHR's operating principles of impact, excellence, effectiveness, inclusion and collaboration.

    We fund high-quality global health research for the direct and primary benefit of people in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and build research and development (R&D) capacity and capability in both the UK and in LMICs through mutual learning and knowledge exchange.

    Working closely with the global health research community, we commission and invest in applied health research and training that responds to the diverse needs of LMIC communities, anticipates the evolving global burden of disease and addresses health system priorities.

    Reporting to the Assistant Director for Global Health, the post holder will be responsible for developing and delivering research commissioning and award management across NIHR Global Health funding Schemes.

    You will have a solid understanding of the research commissioning process, contracting and assurance processes, and the routes through which research leads to impact.

    You will have experience of leadership of complex projects, knowledge of the international research environment and Official Development Assistance (ODA) funding requirements, with demonstrable experience at working across teams and specialisms.

    This is a key role that will require coordination across a range of diverse stakeholders, representing NIHR and other DHSC funded research at internal and external forums.


    Lead commissioning activities for future funding calls:

    ensuring delivery of a robust and transparent funding process, including call theme and priority setting, defining and delivering application and assessment processes, management of a funding committee, and contracting awards recommended for funding.

    Management of a portfolio of funded GHR projects: negotiating contracts, supporting assurance processes, monitoring of risk and progress against agreed milestones, financial performance, reviewing IP and dissemination plans and managing contractual changes to ensure appropriate strategies are in place leading to LMIC benefit and/or commercial realisation.

    Driving impact from funding research; contributing to the development and continuous improvement of research monitoring, learning and evaluation approaches.

    Facilitating the delivery of impact from funded research and ensuring continuous improvement of NIHR processes.

    Developing and maintaining excellent professional relationships with other colleagues within NIHR and at the DHSC, and with the wider GHR stakeholder community.


    Flexible support to the team:

    flexible approach to work tasks with ability to 'muck in' and provide support on additional tasks across the team during busy times.

    Experience of managing and monitoring ODA funded research activities in international and fragile contexts.
    Experience in leading research commissioning activities.

    Experience of research management in biomedical and health research disciplines, in particular research relevant to Global Health Security initiatives.

    Experience of working with UK Government and/or international policy makers and senior decision makers.

    Post-graduate qualifications in biomedical or health sciences research (or significant equivalent sector experience).
    Advanced skills in Microsoft Office applications, in particular Excel, Word and PowerPoint. Proficient in the use of email and other web-based applications, including online databases. Solutions orientated with evidence of developing and implementing adaptable, practical and effective quality-controlled processes, and implementable recommendations. Excellent planning and organisational skills , able to prioritise and manage multiple tasks, working to challenging targets and deadlines.
    Cultural awareness/sensitivity, and evidence of a commitment to diversity and equality of opportunity

    A continuous improvement mentality, with a desire to provide an effective and efficient research management service for all stakeholders.
