The Wellcome Trust is a global charitable foundation. We improve health for everyone by funding science, leading policy and advocacy campaigns, and building partnerships.

We plan to spend £16bn over the next ten years, funding new discoveries in life, health, and wellbeing, and taking on three global health challenges: mental health, infectious disease and climate and health.

These challenges need the bold science we support, but they won’t be solved by science alone.

What will I be doing?

We will support you in growing your data & analytics skills, through building data products and delivering insights to stakeholders across the organisation.

You will:

• Contribute to the scoping and delivery of high-quality analysis and insights to help Wellcome gain a deeper understanding of its funding and organisational data

• Work with a variety of large datasets and employ a variety of analytical and statistical methods to solve complex problems

• Contribute to the writing of reports and preparation of dashboards to support the dissemination of research, analysis and insights

• Effectively and clearly communicate technical findings and recommendations to both technical and non-technical stakeholders

Is this job for me?

You should love working with data and tackling challenging problems, whilst working collaboratively with others.

We are looking for someone who has:

• A numerate background and strong data analysis skills

• Strong data visualisation skills, including experience with Tableau

• Enthusiasm to continue to learn new skills, tools and techniques

• Strong written and oral communication skills with ability to synthesise information and convey key points clearly

• Understanding of the science (life/social), public health, innovation or policy sector and/or an ability to get up to speed quickly on a breadth of science and research policy issues

To apply please upload your current CV and complete our short application.
