About Uplift 

Uplift is an impact-oriented research and campaigning organisation that supports a rapid and fair transition away from oil and gas in the UK, with a goal of making the UK a global first-mover on phasing out oil and gas production in line with climate limits and a just settlement for the workforce.  We are currently looking for an exceptional candidate to provide research support  to help drive forward our strategic policy advocacy at a critical time for the climate movement in the UK and globally.  

The role 

In this role  you will support our team to ensure that Uplift's and its partners' work uses research, insight, and intelligence to maximise our impact. From ensuring our campaigns are informed by the latest data and analysis to conducting research to inform decision-makers, partners, and the broader movement, this is a diverse role at the heart of our work supporting a just transition away from oil and gas extraction. The successful candidate will have exceptional quantitative research skills and a keen interest in climate and energy-related campaigns. A strong commitment to Uplift's mission and core values is also required.  

Responsibilities 

Responsibilities include: 

• Support the delivery of Uplift's research agenda, contributing to our organisational strategy and campaigns. 
• Support Uplift's data initiatives by enhancing our rapid-response analytical capacity and conducting high-impact analysis. 
• Create and maintain resources for various audiences, including journalists, policymakers, and the climate movement. 
• Collaborate with key contacts  across the Research, Policy and Legal team to address strategic research questions and support the execution of research projects. 
• Contribute to the wider work of the Research, Policy and Legal team, including supporting knowledge management and maintaining high-quality standards in outputs. 

About you 

Our ideal candidate will have:  

• Experience in a similar or related research role. 
• Strong knowledge of UK climate, energy or environmental policy (direct expertise in just transition, fossil fuels or renewables would be an advantage, but is not essential). 
• Excellent research and analytical skills, with the ability to synthesise complex information quickly and accurately. 
• A specialised set of quantitative research skills, demonstrating strong data proficiency and experience using, for example, coding languages (such as R or Python). 
• Exceptional writing and communication skills, with strong attention to detail. 
• Motivation, initiative, and the ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a fast-moving environment. 
• A strong commitment to Uplift's mission and core values of equity and climate justice.
