We are delighted to be recruiting for a Research Officer to join our team at an exciting time for the Susanna Wesley Foundation.
Specifically, the SWF is looking for a theologically literate researcher who has experience in conducting research and evaluations in faith-related contexts. Projects will focus largely on qualitative participatory research, with a view to understanding, and impacting on, practice; we therefore welcome applications from those who combine research capability with practitioner experience, and/or those who have successfully conducted theological action research. Expertise in practical theology would be particularly welcome as would a passion for enabling flourishing, inclusion and positive change.
We prize collaborative working and relational approaches so the role would suit someone who enjoys building relationships and participating in conversations to generate learning and understanding. The role includes some administrative elements alongside the opportunities to exercise research skills.
This can be a full time or part time role. See the job description for further details and instructions for applying (CV and cover letter).
