Objectives

ARMA (UK) is the professional association for research management in the UK. We currently have around 2,800 individual members from 250 organisations, ranging from universities and research institutes to research funders and the National Health Service. We represent research leaders, managers and administrators, offering professional development and opportunities to build networks, knowledge and skills. We work with UK-wide and international bodies to influence and understand the changing research management agenda, translating the impacts of that change for our members. We work with others to promote public trust in research, communicating its benefits and value. Most of all, we work to enhance research management as a professional partner in the UK research environment. We provide a wide range of membership benefits and development opportunities, including a comprehensive programme of live and recorded workshops and webinars, Virtual Study Tours in partnership with funders, an annual conference, a comprehensive website, and regular communications including a weekly e-Newsletter and biannual members’ magazine.  Our members can join a number of Special Interest Group forums and receive careers advice and mentoring.
