Programme Managers are at the heart of the EEF’s work. They are responsible for leading and managing a wide range of activities under a number (typically 2-3) of the EEF’s themes and priority areas, from setting up and managing initial trials of projects, through to supporting the growth of the most promising interventions and project managing scale-up work.

Programme Managers are the main point of expertise within the EEF on relevant themes and areas, and build and maintain relationships with the key organisations and individuals in those fields. They advise the Trustees on which projects to fund, work with the Evaluation team to design robust, real-world trials, and manage relationships with existing grantees. They will also work closely with colleagues in the EEF’s Dissemination and Impact team, to ensure our approach to scale-up and mobilisation draws on the lessons learned from previous work and the latest available evidence.
