Crynodeb

The Research and Development department within Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust are recruiting for a R&D Governance coordinator.

This dynamic, lively and diverse department has the breadth of knowledge and skills to ensure that this high level of research activity and associated research processes are managed smoothly and efficiently.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who has an understanding of R&D in the NHS would like to progress into clinical research governance, develop within the NHS and to play a key role in the effective delivery of non-commercial study set-up activity within the Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust non-commercial R&D teams. Candidates with knowledge of R&D / clinical research management/GCP are encouraged to apply.

The successful candidates will be able to demonstrate they are experienced administrators with excellent communication and organisation skills, who enjoy supporting others in their research. While experience in clinical research governance or clinical trials would be advantageous, full training will also be provided but an enthusiasm and interest in clinical research is a must. The selected candidates must work well within a team, follow standard operational procedures, whilst being able to work autonomously and manage their time productively. It is necessary for the candidates to communicate clearly and professionally with a range of staff.

Candidates will need to demonstrate they have a proactive and positive attitude towards their workload and helping others in the team.

The R&D Department at Guy’s & St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust (GSTT) is one of the focal points for innovative research in London through its nationally recognised research portfolio and research infrastructure. The broad ranging research portfolio includes our academic partner King’s College London, numerous NIHR Programme and Project Grants, as well as a Research Scheme for academic consultants. In addition the Trust is a stakeholder in the accredited Academic Health Sciences Centre, King’s Health Partners, and also the Joint Clinical Trials Office. The R&D Department also supports the Phase 1 accredited Clinical Research Facilities. As well as hosting the South London Comprehensive Local Research Network (CLRN), the Trust is a major player in the South London network both in relation to the national research study portfolio and accruals into studies.

Full-time R&D staff are required to work in the office three days a week (part-time staff's attendance is pro-rata). Other flexible working and part-time applicants will be considered such as compressed hours, term-time only, job-shares. However, all R&D Governance staff are required to work to travel across our hospital to support our researchers and research delivery teams.

This is a full-time post but we may consider a part-time role or job shares.
• To manage Trust approvals of research projects and issuing confirmation of capacity approvals including study amendment approvals so that clinical research can start/continue.
• Maintain the R&D database (EDGE) as the central record of all R&D activity within or involving the Trust
• To act as the administrative contact within the R&D Office for seeking relevant approvals, and as a source of advice and information for researchers, including the dissemination of R&D information
• To act as a point of co-ordination, liaison and advice for investigators and sponsors seeking approvals for R&D projects
• Maintain an in-depth understanding of new developments in NHS R&D management and governance.
