What skills are you looking for?

  • Strong understanding of health data management principles, practices and standards, particularly related to cancer and its management
  • Knowledge and understanding of wider health, care and social data related to cancer and the experience of patients
  • Knowledge of data dictionary publication methods, metadata management and data cataloguing techniques, methods, and coding schemes such as SNOMED-CT, ICD9, and READ codes
  • Knowledge of data linkage techniques and data analytics system architectures
  • Familiarity with key interoperability standards and technologies (such as HL7 FIHR, openEHR, EN/ISO and the role of OMOP in operationalising data model consistency, in line with data governance frameworks, data protection regulations and ethical considerations in research data management
  • Proven ability in managing data sets and liaising with researchers and/or institutions on their data management requirements and handling
  • Good relationship management skills, with the ability to establish and develop new relationships with researchers
  • Good communication skills, with the ability to explain complex or technical information to a variety of audiences.
  • Proven ability to manage multiple priorities and contribute to concurrent projects.

What will I gain?
Each and every one of our employees contributes to our progress and is supporting our work to beat cancer. We think that's impressive.


In return, we make sure you are supported by a generous benefits package, a wide range of career and personal development opportunities and high-quality tools, policies and processes to enable you to do your job well.
