Summary
We are seeking 2 motivated nurses eager to make a real difference for patients with haematological malignancies. Join our Haematology Research team and play a key role in delivering cutting-edge clinical trials that directly improve patient outcomes.
This dynamic role offers the chance to manage a varied portfolio of haematology studies, from early to late-phase trials, while developing your clinical and research expertise. You will lead the coordination of trial protocols, manage patient care pathways and deliver treatments in a multidisciplinary team, gaining exposure to innovative therapies and complex care delivery.
We welcome candidates with a background in oncology, flexibility and strong communication skills. Experience in clinical research or haematology is desirable. An informal discussion and time with the team are encouraged to fully appreciate the role and the impact you can make.
The post holder will play a central role across all stages of the Haematology research portfolio, including feasibility reviews of new clinical trial opportunities, trial set-up and activation, patient recruitment and management, data query resolution and reviewing protocol amendments. You will provide patient-centred insights, supporting both participants and the research team throughout all aspects of clinical research.
Working closely with a multidisciplinary team and the wider community, you will ensure patient safety and wellbeing are maintained within multi-regulatory frameworks, adhering to ICH/GCP standards and Trust SOPs. Using national frameworks to audit patient experience, you will help ensure participants receive the highest quality care while contributing to clinical research.
The role also includes raising the profile of clinical research and clinical trials within the Trust and externally, engaging in promotional events and supporting divisional and national objectives and strategies.
The ideal candidate will have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, a high level of motivation, and the ability to work independently, contributing to a dynamic team delivering cutting-edge haematology research.
