The Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) is a
non-departmental public body responsible for allocating nearly £4
billion each year to universities and colleges in England in support of
teaching and research. We are situated in Bristol.
The Analytical Services Group provides professional advice and
specialised services to the HEFCE and other interested bodies. Recent
developments in higher education have resulted in an increased demand
for the group's services, which has led to the creation of new posts.
The group is involved in a range of challenging and interesting projects
of national and international significance. These include preparations
for the forthcoming research assessment exercise in 2001; developing,
maintaining and operating the Council's funding models and processes;
developing performance indicators; and providing quantitative analysis,
research and advice on issues affecting higher education in England.
The successful applicants will have the opportunity of becoming
involved in all aspects of the group's work and will be assigned tasks
depending on their aptitude, experience, and personal interests.
Applicants should have at least a good first degree with a
significant mathematical content and possess an aptitude for
quantitative analysis and statistical programming. Experience of SAS and
other relevant software would be desirable but not essential as full
training will be provided.
Benefits include a non-contributory pension scheme, 25 days
annual leave and a comprehensive staff development programme.
