You need to be self-motivated, a strong communicator, and be able to work independently within a team environment.
The Centre forms one of the largest facilities in Europe for conducting first class clinical research in diabetes and other long term health conditions. We are dedicated to ensuring that people with diabetes and other long term health conditions live long, healthy lives.
Leicester Diabetes Centre is a partnership between the NHS, the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust, and is academically affiliated with the University of Leicester.
You will join a team of research administrators, trial coordinators and trial managers working on single or multi-site research studies/clinical trials. Your role will be to ensure allocated studies receive timely and appropriate management to reach time and target, managing any challenges and issues along the way with diplomacy and highly developed communication skills.
National and occasional international travel to support research sites may be required. You will be expected to line manage one or more administrative staff and will likely supervise the work of a trial coordinator. For this role, you must be able to attend the office in person.
