MRS is changing.
Be part of it.

MRS is about to embark on a significant period of change. This will be change designed to boost value to existing members, reach out to new members and better reflect the research sector's dynamism and diversity.

We can't create this change without you. Over the next three months our new CEO, Jane Frost CBE will be meeting members from across the UK in a bid to outline a new vision for MRS and to hear your views on how MRS can best serve individuals and companies. If you can't make it simply email membership@mrs.org.uk with your comments.

Join us in our mission to build an MRS that is as dynamic, relevant and diverse as the market it serves. To book your place at a Roadshow click here.

The Roadshow discussion themes

We will change the way we serve our members

You can expect new products and services that will help you to further your career, boost your business and capitalise on changes in the research sector.

We will change the way we connect to the market

You can expect a more active group of networks designed to broker relationships between practioners, commissioners and users of research.

We will change the way we communicate

You can expect us to change the way we communicate with you and wider stakeholders to be more attuned with the research sector's own dynamic and engaging communication style. We will present a modern face to market - one that helps to support credibility and boost persuasion.

We will change the way we govern ourselves

As a basis for change we need to refresh the MRS constitution so that we can develop as an organisation and respond to the rapidly changing world in which we operate. This is a complicated area and we need your help to make sure that we get this right. Details can be found here.

Jane Frost, CBE
Chief Executive Officer, MRS

"Having been a commissioner of research for 25 years, no one needs to sell me the importantance of evidence-based decision making. Business leaders and policy makers are crying out for rich intelligence, insightful advice and rigorous data. These are the tools of progress and this, at its heart, is the business of research.

I feel privileged to be given the opportunity to lead an organisation which represents and serves the research community. We are here to champion you all. We are here to help you showcase your successes and we are here to defend the importance of ethics.

To be this effectively MRS needs to adapt and change and that can only be done with your input and support. I very much look forward to working with you to create a stronger MRS and hope that you will contribute to our debate."
