Research and Involvement Officer

The Research and Involvement Officer will ensure that unpaid carers are meaningfully involved in the design and delivery of research and will be instrumental in enabling unpaid carers to be directly heard by researchers and decision makers. This will include the involvement of young carers and unpaid carers of all ages in the development of programmes, policy, and providing mechanisms for unpaid carers to speak truth to power to influence for change.

The postholder will play a key role in bringing Welsh voices and perspectives to our UK-wide research and involvement functions and will work with colleagues across the UK to produce impactful evidence to influence changes beyond Wales’ borders.
