Nursing & Midwifery Council
City Of Westminster, London
Our vision is for safe and effective nursing and midwifery practice across the four countries of the UK - regulated and supported by the NMC - a fit for the future organisation, with fairness and equity at the heart of everything we do. Our role is to protect the public and maintain confidence in the nursing and midwifery professions. As the largest independent regulator in Europe of more than 860,000 nursing and midwifery professionals, we have a crucial role in making this a reality. We do this by setting and promoting high education and professional standards for all future and registered nurses and midwives in the UK and nursing associates in England. We also ensure every nurse, midwife and nursing associate on our Register meets clear standards of conduct and practice which protects the public and the reputation of our professions. We have a duty to investigate concerns and to take steps to protect the public in the relatively rare instances where we need to limit or restrict a nurse, midwife or nursing associate's right to practise. We are building a new NMC with integrity, fairness, respect, equity and effectiveness at its core. We are determined to improve and modernise our culture and ways of working. This will ensure that the public and professionals feel confident in our work. About the team and what we do The NMC needs insight to choose the best approaches to regulation and evaluate the impact of our work. We also have a responsibility to share insights from our work as a regulator with others to help influence positive changes in the wider health and social care environment for the benefit of those receiving care. The insight team at the NMC produces a lot of outputs to support more effective regulatory decision-making. These outputs, while often produced for very specific purposes, contain useful insights that would be of interest and helpful to others outside of the NMC. Your role and impact As Research and Evidence Manager you will lead the development and production of our flagship insight publications (including our Spotlight on Nursing and Midwifery publication) - a key part of which is translating our portfolio of insight outputs into coherent and compelling stories that contribute directly to the NMC's corporate priorities and influencing objectives. You'll work collaboratively with colleagues and external partners to proactively identify gaps and influencing opportunities to inform NMC insights. You'll matrix manage other insight colleagues who are producing insights to feed into NMC outputs. What you'll bring You'll be an experienced research, insight or evidence professional with a strong track record of turning complex information into clear, compelling narratives that influence decision-making and drive positive change. You'll be confident working with both quantitative and qualitative evidence, bringing together insights from multiple sources to identify key themes, trends and opportunities. You'll have excellent writing and editing skills, with the ability to adapt your approach for different audiences, from senior leaders and policymakers to professional and public stakeholders. You'll be highly collaborative, building effective relationships across teams and with external partners to maximise the impact of our insight work. You'll be comfortable working in a matrix environment, providing leadership and direction to colleagues while supporting the delivery of high-quality outputs. You'll bring strong project management skills, balancing multiple priorities and ensuring that publications are delivered to a high standard and on time. You'll also be motivated by the opportunity to evaluate the impact of insight activity and continuously improve how evidence is used to support the NMC's strategic goals. Most importantly, you'll share our commitment to fairness, equity and public protection, and be passionate about using evidence and insight to improve outcomes for people who use health and social care services across the UK.
