We are recruiting for an analyst and storyteller to drive our thinking. And we need your help to make this happen.

We know the numbers. We know the challenges. What happens next will define us for generations.

The post holder will be responsible for maximising our policy impact through high quality research and policy analysis on the economic aspects of ageing.

The context is a challenging one.

For example, in the UK over the past quarter of a century:

• Inequalities in life expectancy and healthy life expectancy have grown.
• While more of us are working longer into our lives, 50–64-year-olds are still less likely to be in employment than people aged 25-49. Opportunities to learn to support longer working lives are limited.
• The public sector has built very few new homes and the private sector hasn’t been able to fill the gap for first- or last-time buyers.

And globally

• Almost 60 million children in primary school age are not in school.
• Only 20% of older people in low-income countries receive a pension.
• Climate Change and antimicrobial resistance threatens progress made over the past 25 years.

Yet there is a lot going on and plenty of opportunities to help deliver our ambitious plans.

• The UN and WHO are leading the Decade of Healthy Ageing.
• The Westminster Government is seeking to reform the NHS to focus more on preventative health to support healthier long lives.
