Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences
Applications are invited for a Grade 7 Researcher, mainly using qualitative methods, to work with a team led by Professor Paul Aveyard on the TRIDENT research programme which aims to help people with serious mental illness reduce harm from smoking.
The post will involve working with patients and staff in mental healthcare to adapt the interventions, including using conversation analysis, think-aloud, interviews, and observational methods to understand how the intervention needs adapting and whether adapted interventions meet their goals. Thereafter, the role will involve using implementation science models to understand the process of rollout in routine mental healthcare and understand how the outcomes of the intervention have come to be achieved.
You will hold a PhD/DPhil in a relevant field or be about to obtain one in the next few months, possess a strong knowledge of qualitative analysis methods and have experience in collecting and analysing qualitative data, including interviews. You will be able to demonstrate a proven ability to plan and manage your own work with strong research outputs commensurate with the stage of your career.
You will be based in the Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences, Radcliffe Primary Care Building, Woodstock Road, Oxford, OX2 6GG as your normal place of work.
The position is funded by an NIHR programme grant for applied sciences to start 1 April 2024. The programme is subject to review on December 2026 with the possibility of extension to April 2029.
