Beyond jobs

We’re looking for someone who makes things happen

We’re looking for a proactive, curious and practical research and evaluation leader who spots opportunities, builds partnerships, and helps us turn lived experience into evidence that improves services, influences policy and drives change.

The Hepatitis C Trust is one of the UK’s biggest lived-experience organisations working in Inclusion Health. With almost 500 staff and volunteers, our teams work in communities and prisons across England, and in parts of Scotland and Wales, reaching people that mainstream health services routinely struggle to engage.

This gives us a unique reach among populations whose voices are too often missing from research, policy and service design.

Our research and evaluation programme aims to:

• Evidence the impact of our programmes and services.
• Understand what works, and what doesn’t, in improving outcomes for marginalised and excluded communities.
• Strengthen our understanding of the value and potential of peer-led and lived experience approaches.
• Improve the representation of excluded populations in research, policy and service design.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Has a strong background in research and evaluation, including both qualitative and quantitative methods.
• Is proactive, self-directed and comfortable taking ownership of projects.
• Has experience of generating evidence that informs policy, practice or service improvement.
• Is excited by the potential of lived experience and peer-led approaches.
• Builds strong relationships and enjoys working collaboratively.
• Has excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Is committed to equity, inclusion and social justice.

Why this role?

You’ll have genuine autonomy to help shape a growing research and evaluation function within one of the UK’s leading lived-experience organisations.

This role is focused on providing strategic communications leadership to the Global Disability Innovation Hub (GDI Hub), with an emphasis on web and digital media. The ambition of this role is to support GDI Hub into its next 10-years (having just celebrated our 10-year anniversary), with ownership of our expansive web and digital portfolios.

The post holder will work with the Director of Global Engagement and the GDI Hub comms team to elevate the organisation’s portfolio of public facing touch points. The role will combine core responsibilities of website ownership and content development, alongside providing experienced and strategic leadership for the communications function.

As part of a small but highly proactive and ambitious team, this position will have a strong output focus

This senior position will in time take on line management responsibilities for two members of the communications team. Management experience is essential, as is a track record for leading a fast-paced communications and content team, with responsibility for project and programme outputs. The role will require the ability to balance priorities, manage incoming requests and ensure the communications function is delivered in a streamline and strategic way.  

They will also lead the strategic thinking required to align GDI Hub’s web and digital platforms to present a collective voice, dynamic and vision of the organisation. Suitable candidates will showcase broad experience in communications including content capture and amplification (socials), digital design, web development and event delivery, both online and in person. 

Across all elements of the role, the successful candidate will need to work collaboratively and dynamically. This role will work closely with members of the GDI Hub team, including Senior Leadership, and will interact with external partners, collaborators and stakeholders. GDI Hub is a dynamic workplace and we encourage open and positive dialogue between team members and collaboration across all tiers of the organisation. 

We are looking for a candidate with strong technical, communications and digital skills, alongside the ability to think strategically, supporting GDI Hub’s vision for its communications function in the coming years. The ability to work in a fast-paced environment is essential, as is a positive, can-do approach. 

We are seeking a warm, creative leader for our vibrant creative wellbeing hub in Templars Square. In this hands-on, community-facing role, you will co-design inclusive arts activities that boost mental health, support our wonderful volunteers, and foster deep community connection. No two days are the same! Experience in community arts coordination and safeguarding essential. We warmly welcome applications from underrepresented communities.
