The brief

Lancaster University is one of the top 15 UK universities in the UK and is ranked 122nd in the world in the Times Higher international league table.

It is one of the few leading UK universities to be highly ranked for both its research and its student experience.

In an increasingly competitive Higher Education environment, the University is looking to become more widely recognised for the quality and relevance of its research amongst national policymakers and other stakeholders.

We aim to increase our profile and external recognition, and to see more research outcomes influencing policy development.

The University has therefore decided to invest in a new public affairs strategy, including the appointment of a public affairs agency.

The agency will work directly with a newly appointed Head of Public Affairs to make connections with policymakers.

We are looking to appoint an agency to provide ongoing support for a 12-month period after which the arrangement will be reviewed and possibly renewed.
