Full Job Description
We are looking for a Senior Research Manager to join our internationally renowned and diverse research team. In this pivotal role, you will conduct impactful research to help achieve Cambridge University Press and Assessment's (CUP&A) mission to support language education. This is a 12-month fixed-term position to cover parental leave. As part of this role, you will collaborate effectively across the Cambridge Ecosystem - encompassing Cambridge University Press and Assessment as well as the University of Cambridge. You will play a key role in driving our research agenda, which underpins the development of English products and capabilities for language learners, test takers, and other relevant stakeholders. Your work will be vital to delivering CUP&A's ambitions through targeted research in language learning and assessment. We are Cambridge University Press & Assessment, a world-leading academic publisher and assessment organisation and a proud part of the University of Cambridge. About the role This is a research-focused position with key responsibilities that include:
- Conducting high-quality research, which ensures that products, propositions, capabilities, and services are underpinned by robust research evidence.
- Providing an expert domain and research perspective on the maintenance and development of learning and assessment products.
- Designing rigorous quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods research studies, incorporating both traditional and innovative methodologies.
- Leading research projects that meet high theoretical and technical standards and communicating findings to both technical and non-technical audiences.
- Building strong relationships with internal teams to ensure that key learning and assessment principles inform decision-making processes.
- Developing/maintaining a strong academic profile in areas relevant to language education.
To excel in this role, you will bring: - An advanced degree in Applied Linguistics, Language Learning, Language Testing, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
- A deep understanding of language learning and assessment, with demonstrated expertise in delivering research projects using a range of methodologies.
- The ability to confidently engage with internal and external stakeholders and convey research ideas and technical concepts to both specialist and non-specialist audiences. The ideal candidate will have experience conducting research in areas such as accessibility, test accommodations, and broader EDI (Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion) considerations within language education. Familiarity with AI-supported learning and assessment, particularly in addressing ethical issues, would be highly desirable.
- 28 days annual leave plus bank holidays
- Private medical and Permanent Health Insurance
- Discretionary annual bonus
- Group personal pension scheme
- Life assurance up to 4 x annual salary
- Green travel schemes
