An exciting opportunity has arisen within the developing Clinical Research Unit at the Bristol Eye Hospital. We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic individual as a Clinical Trial Co-ordinator.
In this position you will work closely with members of a multi-disciplinary research team to provide them with clinical and administrative support for a portfolio of clinical trials.
The work requires initiative, accuracy and attention to detail. Experience of clinical research projects within the NHS or academic/commercial settings will be essential. You will be in contact with a broad professional group, as well as members of the public and research sponsors; therefore, excellent communication, interpersonal and organisational skills will be of equal importance.
Experience in clinical research is required and ophthalmology experience would be advantageous.
You will be performing a variety of duties within this position. This will include setting up trials, working closely with the Trust R&I department to gain the necessary approvals.
You will manage an ongoing portfolio of studies, performing a variety of tasks such as completing case report forms, maintaining study documentation, processing amendments, and planning and organising patient appointments.
A component of this role is the requirement to perform some clinical work, for example, assisting in the informed consent procedure, venepuncture, vital signs, urine testing and ECGs. Full training will be given, with an opportunity to gain accreditation as a Clinical Research Practitioner, which is now identified as an occupational group in health and care in the UK by the UK Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Training and development feature high on our list of priorities. Therefore, the post holder will be a flexible, motivated team player willing to further develop their understanding of clinical trials.
