Research Culture Data and Evaluation Analyst

Grade: SG7 | Department: Strategic Planning | Fixed-term

The University of Greenwich is looking for a skilled and insight-driven Research Culture Data and Evaluation Analyst to support the development and delivery of our Strategy, People, and Research Environment (SPRE) Framework, aligned to REF 2029 and Strategy 2030.

This is an exciting opportunity to help shape how research culture is understood, evaluated and improved across the University. Working within Strategic Planning and collaborating closely with Greenwich Research & Innovation (GRI), EDI, People Directorate, Sustainability teams and faculty leadership, you will play a central role in building an evidence base that informs strategic decision-making and drives meaningful institutional change.

The postholder will lead on collecting, linking, analysing and interpreting a wide range of institutional datasets and mixed-methods evidence to support research culture evaluation, institutional reporting and REF environment development.

Duties and responsibilities will typically include working as part of a team to:

  • Collect, integrate and analyse institutional datasets relevant to research culture and Strategy, People, and Research Environment priorities, including surveys, HR data, EDI data, Open Access compliance and sustainability metrics
  • Conduct mixed-methods analysis and evaluation activities to support REF 2029 Strategy, People, and Research Environment development and wider institutional priorities
  • Develop dashboards, indicators, visualisations and reporting tools to support strategic planning and evidence-informed decision-making
  • Support the development of consistent SPRE indicators and evaluation frameworks aligned to Strategy 2030, REF and institutional KPIs
  • Contribute to communities of practice, institutional reporting and continuous improvement initiatives relating to data, evaluation and research culture

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
