Job Description

Are you looking to build your career in one of the world’s largest research organisations?

The Transport & Infrastructure team is at the heart of Ipsos Public Affairs policy offering. It covers one of the most fast-moving areas of policy in the UK. We respond to the needs of government, helping to design, deliver and evaluate policies and programmes across transport, utilities, energy and the environment fields. We are looking for a Senior Consultant to join us to support the continued growth of the team and the delivery of our evaluation work in these key areas.

The role…
As an Evaluation Senior Consultant, you will contribute to process, impact and economic evaluations of varying sizes and for a range of clients, including the Department for Transport and the Department for Digital, Culture Media and Sport. These projects will commonly assess the impacts of government interventions in relation to travel patterns, congestion, digital connectivity, productivity, economic growth, jobs, and social outcomes such as leisure time, wellbeing and loneliness. Crucially, this will involve evaluating national progress in meeting grand challenges such as active travel, digital infrastructure coverage, digitisation, Levelling Up, decarbonisation and loneliness.

You will manage evaluation and research strands within larger projects and smaller projects which have strong transport and economic components. You will also have the opportunity to increase Ipsos’s impact on transport, infrastructure and economic policy and social change in the UK by writing articles, attending events and engaging in social media. You will contribute to the ongoing business development of the team by contributing to proposal writing and to the monitoring of business development opportunities.


The main responsibilities of the role are:
  • Evaluation delivery - specifically, the co-design and delivery of evaluation frameworks, the development of evaluation methods, the development of responses to evaluation questions and meeting evaluation objectives.
  • The application of specific qualitative and quantitative evaluation techniques, such as theory based evaluation, realist approaches, cost-benefit analysis, experimental and quasi-experimental impact evaluation methods (RCTs, matching methods).
  • Management of projects or strands of projects.
  • Developing day-to-day client relationships while ensuring projects are delivered to budget and timescale.
  • Drafting research tools to a high standard, requiring little amendment (for desk-based secondary analysis and primary data collection).
  • Overseeing primary data collection, including in-depth interviews and survey design / set-up.
  • Drafting accessible and concise reporting outputs of evaluation and research findings.
  • Presentation of results to clients and stakeholders.
  • Leading and contributing to evaluation proposals as part of a wider team.
  • Line management of junior staff.
What do I need to bring with me…
  • A strong academic background in social sciences (e.g. geography, economics, statistics).
  • Proven track record of managing and delivering projects to timescale and budgets with limited supervision.
  • Proven experience of designing and delivering evaluation in a commercial environment or equivalent experience in a consultancy environment.
  • A passion for and understanding of transport and infrastructure, economic and public policy development.
  • Experience of conducting qualitative and quantitative analysis relevant to this post.
  • Experience designing research materials, including analytical frameworks, questionnaires and topic guides.
  • Experience of conducting and overseeing primary and secondary data collection and analysis (interviews, surveys, literature review).
  • Experience in the development of client-ready qualitative and quantitative analysis and reporting.
  • Proven ability to lead/contribute to research and evaluation proposals.
