In this new role, you will work as an in-house recruiter of participants for Crux's Human Factors and Usability studies. You will be proactive in sourcing participants for human factors studies, have independence in developing a recruitment approach, and take the lead in sourcing hard-to-reach and large volume participant recruitment.

At Crux, we're looking to build a best-in-class participant database which will be truly representative of the end users for the products we develop. We want to make sure that the products we develop work for as many people as possible, and place value on participant diversity to support this – including across gender, education, age, ethnicity, and disability. Typical participants recruited for our studies include patients with diagnosed illnesses, and Healthcare Professionals. It is key that participants have an outstanding recruitment experience.

Crux are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce and strive to develop a participant pool which reflects these same values. There will be opportunities for training and development to gain knowledge of Human Factors to support effective recruitment of participants, as well as skill sharing across different functions at Crux.

Principal Responsibilities

  • Developing recruitment strategies for hard-to-reach and large volume participant studies
  • Proactively initiating and co-ordinating recruitment of participants
  • Building and managing a database of participants
  • Managing timelines and internal requests

  • With support of the team, growing your knowledge of human factors study requirements to help recruitment efforts and discussions
  • Support Crux's continual development by raising any suggestions or ideas you might have for improvement.
  • Comply with all company Health and Safety and Quality Management policies and procedures in order to ensure that the performance of daily duties does not endanger fellow employees, visitors, contractors or any member of the general public.
  • Carry out any reasonable task requested by the company in the course of performing your daily duties and within contracted working hours.

What We're Looking For...

We will be looking for you to take the lead in developing an approach to source participants and build a database of future human factors participants. You will be skilled at building relationships and networking with relevant institutions and finding innovative ways to identify (and market to) potential participants. You will work well against deadlines, taking responsibility for sourcing the required participants to agreed timelines.

Essential:

  • Experience in participant recruitment (both recruiting and co-ordinating sessions)
  • Experience building a recruitment database
  • Experience proactively developing conversations with leads using innovative methods
  • Ability to work independently to achieve goals
