We have an exciting opportunity for an outstanding quantitative analyst, with experience of managing large-scale research projects, to take a leading role as part of a team to deliver the quasi-experimental, realist evaluation in the Police Drug Diversion (PDD) project.
This evaluation is funded by the Cabinet Office Evaluation Accelerator Fund and is being carried out by the University of Kent in collaboration with several partners, including the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID)
The role holder will primarily take the lead on developing and analysing the linked dataset, providing guidance and line management support to the Research Associate working on the same project. The analysis will involve quasi-experimental comparisons of people in areas with diversion schemes to similar people in areas without diversion schemes. There will also be opportunities for the successful applicant to collaborate on other research projects in SSPSSR.
The successful applicant will be employed by the University of Kent and also seconded into OHID in order to access the data necessary for completion of the evaluation. Appointment to this post is conditional on the selected applicant passing the necessary vetting to access the data. We aim for the post to start in June 2023, but this will depend on passing vetting.

Take responsibility for the management of developing and analysing the linked dataset as part of this large-scale PDD research project
Provide guidance and line management support to the Research Associate working on the same project
Support OHID to link data on drug-involved suspects across administrative datasets
Access the linked data via platforms provided by OHID and its partners and preparing it for analysis
Take responsibility for communicating and reporting results from complex quantitative data analysis, to the high standard sufficient to be published by the Cabinet Office and in related academic, peer-reviewed publications
Carry out high quality independent research and contribute fully to SSPSSR’s research strategy
To be successful in this role you will have:
A PhD, or near to completion of a PhD (or equivalent experience) in a relevant subject (Desirable)
Experience of leading and over-seeing complex projects
Knowledge of quantitative research methods and their application
Experience of using data linkage techniques
Knowledge of the workings and operation of police, health, and/or drug treatment systems
Experience of writing reports for publication by government departments
What we can offer you in return:
A friendly, open and collaborative working environment and support in your development and wellbeing
Hybrid working options allowing a flexible blend of office and home working (to be agreed in line with business needs)
43 days' leave per year (personal leave, bank holidays and additional days allocated for the Christmas period, pro rata for part-time staff)
An excellent pension scheme with generous employer contributions
