Research manager

🔍 Research Manager (12-Month FTC)


📍 Greenwich, London | 💼 £40,000–£45,000 + 10–15% bonus | Hybrid working


Are you a detail-driven researcher who loves turning data into meaningful insight?

We’re working with a specialist employment research consultancy that helps organisations, courts, and legal professionals understand how people’s careers, pay, and opportunities are shaped by real-life events.


As Research Information Manager, you’ll lead a small, expert team delivering high-quality analytical reports that support evidence-based decision-making. You’ll oversee workloads, mentor researchers, review and approve outputs, and occasionally represent your team’s work in formal settings as part of expert testimony.


This is a hands-on role where analytical rigour meets real-world impact — perfect for someone who enjoys both managing people and getting into the detail themselves.


We’re looking for someone who:

✅ Has strong experience in research or data analysis (labour market, economics, or social science background ideal)

✅ Is confident managing, coaching, and motivating others

✅ Can interpret complex information and present it clearly and accurately

✅ Works well under pressure and takes pride in precision


This is a 12-month fixed-term contract with the potential to go permanent — a chance to take on leadership responsibility within a trusted, purpose-driven research team.
