The role will involve leading on discrete tasks within the research team, the recruitment of participants, working in collaboration with the McPin Foundation to support young people and their families across the research journey, facilitating creative co-design sessions with children and young people, families, and professionals, supporting the dissemination and communication plan, and undertaking a range of clinical research assessments as per study protocols and local guidelines for the completion of research documentation.

To work creatively and adapt content of workshops to suit the needs of participants, in collaboration with the wider study team.
Provide complex research related information to research participants when taking informed consent for the research study or carrying out a research procedure.
To be aware of the psychological/emotional needs of the child or young person and parent/carer, responding and reporting appropriately.
To maintain confidentiality of information regarding patients, families and carers at all times.
