The Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) is a
non-departmental public body responsible for allocating over £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.
