Research Project Assistant

from £19,263 to £21,681 per annum (pay award pending)

The Count Me In Too (CMIT) research project seeks to progress social change for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans (LGBT) people through evidence-led practice. Having conducted exciting participatory action research since 2005, the project is now embarking on a new phase that will focus on creating community and academic resources. As part of this new strategy, the project now requires a dynamic and self-motivated Research Assistant to work as part of the team with community partners Spectrum. You will support the production of resources, operate an information desk that addresses LGBT research, undertake further research and analyses, and contribute to the academic outputs of CMIT. The nature of this project means that you will be involved in both academic and community engagements and outputs. The role also requires close liaison with key stakeholders including LGBT people, communities and voluntary groups, together with an engagement with the local mainstream community, voluntary and statutory services. Alongside direction from the research team, the duties will be guided by consultations and an LGBT steering group. Experience of qualitative research and a working knowledge of SPSS software are required. The post is fixed-term for 18 months as funding is limited. Job sharers welcome.
