As Knowledge Mobilisation & Impact Specialist within the NIHR Applied Research Collaboration East Midlands (ARC EM), you will play a pivotal role in ensuring that research evidence leads to meaningful improvements in health and care. Working closely with the Head of Knowledge Mobilisation, you will bridge the gap between academia, policy and practice by translating complex research findings into accessible, actionable outputs that support decision-making across health and care systems. You will help align research innovations with national and regional priorities, facilitating the adoption, scaling and impact of evidence-based solutions across the NHS, local government and wider partner organisations.
This is a highly collaborative and strategic role that sits at the intersection of research, implementation and system improvement. You will work with researchers, clinicians, policymakers, community organisations and public contributors to identify knowledge needs, co-design knowledge mobilisation activities, synthesise evidence, develop impactful resources and evaluate how research is being used in practice.
