## Description

The Research Manager role is part of an ambitious, multidisciplinary team that delivers high-quality research and analysis to help the Agency address knowledge gaps and make evidence-led decisions.

Playing a crucial role in supporting the team, you will:

- Support the delivery of the team's research programme, contributing to both established analytical products and exploratory research projects, and applying own initiative to identify and develop new insights.

- Support the production and continuous development of the team's market insight products, including market overviews and forecasts, using complex data analysis, interpretation and written reporting to generate robust and actionable insights.

- Undertake research and analysis across a broad range of economic, housing market, finance and place-based topics, from national trends and forecasts to localised projects, as well as sub-sector trends (Build to Rent, SME development, affordable housing, emerging tenures and other priority sectors where the Agency invests), generating insights that support the Agency's strategic decision-making.

Responsibilities include:

- Applying critical thinking and analytical judgement to explore, interpret and quality assure complex datasets, identifying and resolving methodological, data quality and analytical issues.

- Supporting the development and continuous improvement of the Agency's self-service insight products and analytical resources, helping colleagues access and use data and evidence effectively.

- Building effective and collaborative working relationships with colleagues and stakeholders across the Agency, contributing expertise and insight to achieve shared objectives.

The role will support the wider team to complete their outputs to the highest standard, working collaboratively and supportively across the wider Research, Economics and Geospatial (REG) function.
