Crynodeb
We’re looking for a dynamic and strategic Chief Operating Officer (COO) to join the leadership team of the NIHR Bristol Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) — a partnership between University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust (UHBW) and the University of Bristol.
This is a unique and exciting opportunity to support some of the UK’s most innovative health research. Our centre focuses on early-stage, translational and experimental medicine research that aims to improve health outcomes locally and nationally.
As COO, you’ll work closely with the BRC Director and lead the day-to-day operations of the Centre. You’ll make sure everything runs smoothly across our research themes and cross-cutting programmes, and that we’re delivering on our strategy, partnerships and obligations to funders and wider stakeholders.
This is a varied and rewarding role, ideal for someone who enjoys problem-solving, building relationships, and working at the intersect of healthcare and academia.
The COO will provide strategic oversight and operational leadership across the BRC’s multi-theme research portfolio. Working in close partnership with the BRC Director, you will:
• Lead the operational delivery of the BRC’s research programmes, ensuring progress against strategic objectives, timelines, and budgets.
• Manage governance, finance and reporting, including adherence to NIHR and regulatory requirements.
• Work closely with the BRC Director to shape and implement strategy, including preparations for the next NIHR funding application.
• Manage a diverse team of professional services staff supporting research, training, inclusion, industry engagement, and patient and public involvement.
• Support stakeholder engagement, including communications with NIHR, NHS and academic partners, and industry collaborators.
• Promote inclusion, training, and public involvement, embedding these principles across all areas of BRC activity.
This is a high-impact role requiring cross-organisational leadership, national engagement, and a strong focus on delivering research that makes a real-world difference.
University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust (UHBW) is one of the largest acute Trusts in the country, bringing together a combined workforce of over 13,000 staff and over 100 different clinical services across 10 different sites, serving a core population of more than 500,000 people across South West England. UHBW has been rated by the CQC as ‘Good’ overall and our staff are proud to deliver excellent care to the people of Bristol, Weston and beyond. As a forward- thinking multi-award winning Trust and a digital exemplar committed to improving patient care, our world-leading research and innovations are having a positive local and global impact. Our hospitals are spread across Bristol and Weston, join us and you can enjoy the very best of both worlds; city living within a stone’s throw of the countryside or beside the seaside, both with easy access to all that the South West has to offer. UHBW is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults. As an equal opportunities employer actively working towards a diverse workforce we aim to recruit and retain a workforce which represents the rich diversity of the local population at all levels and are committed to designing our services around the needs of individual patients and those around them. Anonymous information will be used from your application in order to ensure we’re meeting our pledge.

The NIHR Bristol Biomedical Research Centre is a partnership between UHBW NHS Trust and the University of Bristol.
