Wellcome are looking to recruit a Research Manager to sit within the Lived Experience team, who’s remit is to ensure that the expertise and perspectives of people with lived experience of mental health problems inform and shape the mental health science research agenda; to find the best ways to take account of the expertise and insights of people with lived experience of mental health problems; and developing best models of inclusion and involvement of those most affected by mental health problems within the wider mental health science community.
