I managed and provided technical direction for consultancy research projects, mostly mixed methods / qualitative evaluations of projects and large-scale programmes for public and third sector clients, including: local authorities; UK Government (various NHS bodies, Department for Education, DWP, sector skills bodies); and the European Commission. My research covered a range of interconnected social policy topics: including public health and inequalities; employment and skills; child poverty and multiple disadvantage; families and young people; welfare reform. I managed and coached teams of researchers and specialist subcontractors, taking on a lead role for projects of up to £120k in value, and acting as part of the management team for larger research assignments. I wrote proposals and reports, communicated findings, and made decisions about what new business to go for, contributing to the growth and development of the consultancy practice.
