Come help us shape the future of research impact!
Overton is a startup with big ambitions to support evidence-based policymaking across the world. We have built a pioneering platform that allows users to discover millions of policy documents and their links to each other, to academic papers and to relevant people and topics.
We’re already working with leading global universities, intergovernmental organisations and think tanks to understand their role in the policymaking landscape, all the way from scholarly research through to government legislation.
We’re growing quickly and we want to make sure that we’re building an amazing relationship with and learning from all of our new users. That’s where you come in…
We’re looking for an enthusiastic Engagement and Training Manager to help our clients make the most of their Overton subscription, to collect and analyze their feedback and to help shape our platform. This is an exciting opportunity to join our small, dynamic team at a pivotal stage of our development, where you’ll be able to have a big impact from day one.
We’re particularly interested in applicants with experience as an academic librarian or working for an academic publisher, research funder or a similar organisation serving academic stakeholders.
