Are you a passionate and experienced quantitative researcher looking to take on a dynamic leadership role in real-world public health research? The Hull York Medical School is seeking a highly motivated, forward-thinking researcher to join a prestigious, NIHR-funded programme, where your work will directly shape public health interventions across the UK. You will be a key member of the newly established Public Health Intervention Responsive Studies Team (PHIRST REACH)—a collaborative initiative led by the University of York in partnership with the Bradford Institute for Health Research and the University of Leeds. Funded by the NIHR, PHIRST teams provide timely, high-quality evaluations of public health interventions, supporting local authorities nationwide in making evidence-based decisions that improve population health. The post holder will be given responsibility to play a leadership role and publish high-impact over the course of the 5 year programme of work. The post is based at the University of York but may require occasional (subsisted) travel elsewhere across the UK to engage with local authority partners. You will be expected to work closely with the PHIRST leads, Programme Manager and qualitative researcher to take overall responsibility for the planning, management and delivery of the evaluation projects. This will include oversight of any quantitative data analysis, support to qualitative research, all associated routine reporting and dissemination of findings including producing high quality research outputs.
