This is an exciting opportunity to join the dynamic, multi-disciplinary team at the Centre of expertise on child sexual abuse (CSA Centre) as one of the Principal Researcher and Evaluation Officers. This is a key role within the CSA Centre, central to our ambition to develop, understand and embed evidence-informed improvements in the response to child sexual abuse. About the role: The CSA Centre aims to inform and improve policy and practice at local and national levels by identifying, generating and sharing high quality evidence on what works to prevent and tackle child sexual abuse, and our extensive research, evaluation and monitoring activity is central to that mission. As Principal Research and Evaluation Officers, you will lead a programme of research and evaluation, working closely with other research and evaluation colleagues and our team of multi-agency Practice Improvement Advisers. This is a unique opportunity to develop and deliver programmes of research and evaluation that support sustainable improvements to knowledge, understanding and practice, driving real change in the response to child sexual abuse across England and Wales. We are looking for an experienced professional with strong skills in designing, planning and managing research and evaluation projects, in the field of child sexual abuse, or related field. You should be confident using a range of methodologies, including relevant specialist research and data analysis software and analytical approaches, and able to present findings clearly for different audiences.

We bring about change by: Collating and analysing existing research, policy, practice and the real experiences of those affected, and filling the gaps we identify with new research, insights and analysis; Using that evidence and insight to challenge and improve existing policy and practice, develop new approaches and increase everyone's knowledge and confidence to more effectively tackle the issue. This role is home based with regular travel required, usually to London.
