About the Research Officer Scheme
Join us as a Research Officer to launch a brilliant career in Government Social Research.
Government social researchers play a critical role in gathering, analysing, and interpreting the information which forms the foundation for decision making for policies which affect every UK resident.
As a Research Officer working in the Civil Service, you would contribute through analysis of social trends, development of government policy, and evaluation of how policies make a difference to public services.
Your work might involve developing surveys, analysing data, producing statistics, reviewing existing research evidence, and working with other analysts in government to provide timely and relevant briefings for policy colleagues and ministers.
