    Description

    Role

    We are seeking a Research Fellow to join The York Policy Engine team to support York's involvement in a new Policy Hub that is being established within the Bradford Health Determinants Research Collaboration (HDRC): a £4.7m National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) funded programme that runs until September 2027 to boost research capabilities within local government.

    Health Determinants Research Collaborations (HDRCs) boost research capacity and capability within local government. They aim to embed a culture of always using evidence when making decisions. HDRCs use research findings to understand how decisions impact on health and health inequalities. They also carry out research where evidence isn't already available

    The aim of the Hub is to develop the capacity of Bradford Council to use, choose and do research and apply evidence-based policy principles to practice, to improve the health and wellbeing of people and reduce inequalities in Bradford.

    You will lead on key aspects of the joint University of York and Bradford Council HDRC Policy Hub. You will work closely with policy stakeholders to undertake policy-oriented research and evaluation focused on addressing determinants of health and wellbeing across the district of Bradford. This might include, for example, policy-oriented research relating to anti-poverty work across Bradford, the creation of a healthier more inclusive economy, improvements to housing, Bradford City of Culture 2025 and more.
