Dr Jill Miller

Current role:

I support the Nation of Refuge Project Investigator and researchers to deliver a cutting-edge, impactful 4-year research programme. I am working with the team to: 

• Develop a Theory of Change with clear vision, objectives and impact measures.  
• Analyse and map stakeholders to support a strategic approach to stakeholder engagement and communication. 
• Support the team in developing positive, long-term relationships with stakeholders. 
• Schedule internal and external meetings and follow-up with actions and deadlines. 
• Create and maintain the Nation of Refuge webpage. 
• Provide general administrative assistance to the team.

Working in the Department of Languages and Culture is a great opportunity to get a taste for academic life, learn about other research methodologies and further develop my skills on impact measurement. 

Research interests:

My main areas of research interest are within HR and people management, including: employee health and wellbeing; equality, diversity and inclusion; flexible and hybrid working. 
I’m passionate about research dissemination - promoting positive organisation and policy change through cutting-edge insight. I enjoy seeking out opportunities for the research team to engage externally at conferences, with the media and with policy makers. I am keen to further pursue my interest in measuring the real-world contribution to knowledge and impact of rigorous academic research.
