Go Higher West Yorkshire, a partnership of 13 Higher Education Providers in West Yorkshire, is looking to appoint a confident and capable individual to support the research, evaluation and monitoring of our Office for Students-funded Uni Connect Programme.

Uni Connect offers activities, advice and information on the benefits and realities of going to university or college, supporting young people to make informed choices about their future. An essential part of the project is the delivery of robust research, evaluation and monitoring of our outreach activity, evidencing impact to understand what works and why. You will be responsible for the provision of administrative support to the Data, Evaluation & Impact Team, as well as occasionally providing administrative support to the wider team. This will be a varied and rewarding role, which will include assistance in organising meetings, workshops and training events, and supporting the development and delivery of research and evaluation across a wide range of outreach activities. You will also assist with the monitoring and tracking of Uni Connect participants using the HEAT (Higher Education Access Tracker) database.

You will be required to work accurately with attention to detail, with excellent communication skills and an enthusiasm for working in the area of Widening Participation Research and Evaluation. The post will be based in the Go Higher West Yorkshire team (located on the University of Leeds campus and currently working hybrid from home and on campus).
