Head of Research Section, Social and General Statistics - London, United Kingdom - UK Parliament
Description
Eligibility
This role is open to House of Commons, Parliamentary Digital Service and R&R Client Team employees only.
Introduction
The Research and Information team delivers research, information and other services for Members, their staff, House staff and the public.
Research and information services aimed primarily at Members and their staff are provided under the House of Commons Library brand. Research services are provided by eight research sections, each responsible for research services in broad subject groupings.
The Role

They may take on projects or other responsibilities at directorate or Team level or represent the Team in house-wide activities. The roles of Research heads are subject to any changes which may be agreed following changes to Team policies.
Some of the responsibilities for this role include:
