SalaryAbout the role
Reporting to a Senior MEL Manager but working as part of a matrix management system, this is an excellent opportunity to join the team with a vision to generate timely and fit-for purpose evidence and insight, enabling NIHR to be innovative, adaptable and effective in supporting, leading and improving the impact of research.
With an emphasis on driving culture change, the MEL team helps to evidence the impact of investment in health and social care research, and you will support activities to promote, develop and embed better practice, in monitoring, evaluation and learning throughout the organisation.

Working closely with our Senior MEL team you will help to support and deliver Programme/Scheme/Initiative level MEL activities. You will support the team in the process of developing MEL plans, which are created to document and address key evaluation questions for programmes and schemes. Guided by logic models, you will identify potentially relevant indicators to measure key outputs and evidence progress on outcomes.
You will contribute to and support delivery of internally commissioned process and outcome evaluations by accessing data, conducting analysis and supporting report-writing to help improve understanding on how effective, efficient and equitable NIHR Programmes/Schemes are to support continuous improvement, and to better understand and demonstrate the impact of these programmes, schemes and initiatives.
