Research Professional Roles
Research Professional Roles
To support the early stages of the project, the RPF team, collaborating with Research Consulting and the team at the University of Oxford, have developed a working classification of RP roles, providing a starting point for understanding the breadth of the community. Click on the hexagons below to explore the roles further:
Research Funding and Research Business Developmentt
Research Environment, Culture and Researcher Development
Research Systems, Infrastructure and Management
Library, Collection and Research Information Services
Research Strategy, Policy and Planning
Knowledge exchange, impact and commercialisation
Research Compliance, Governance and Regulatory Requirements
Managing Research Portfolios: Applications, Awards, Projects and Income
Research Project, Programme and Centre Management
Clinical and NHS-linked Research Management
Research Communications and Marketing
This is not intended to be exhaustive. Throughout the lifetime of the project, we expect more groups to emerge as the sector contributes, definitions evolve, and new areas of professional expertise become visible. We value your feedback, so get in touch with the RPF team on how we can capture the breadth of RP roles.
We are all here for the Research.
