Taunton, United Kingdom Somerset NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Although the work of a CTA cant be completed in isolation (think of research like a relay race between clinical & admin teams), when competent, youll be responsible for your own projects, ensuring they are set-up to a high standard, following process and meeting important targets. Youll need to have great concentration & attention skills, as youll be reading project documents & extricating information to gain a good understanding of each project. This understanding is key to ensure trial activities are deliverable locally, projects are conducted safely & according to the relevant legislation. Youll also need to adhere to version control.

A vital part of setting up a project locally, is ensuring supporting departments within the Trust are aware of the project & seeking safety approvals. This often requires summarising complex information in a concise manner. Youll also work with other research staff both locally and nationally, clinicians & drug companies to ensure Trust readiness. Co-ordinating busy staff & working in parallel with other processes is a balancing act.

As such, great communication is key This role is varied & interesting but a different pace from other NHS admin work due to the autonomous nature of set-up. Please refer to the Job Description for full details. If you think you could work as a CTA, we'd like to hear from you

The majority of the CTA working day is PC based, so youll need excellent IT skills. The CTAs use a system called EDGE to record the progress of each project being set-up. The CTA team have produced a library of workflows within EDGE, which act as a to-do list & a guide to complete many of our processes. MS office is used extensively to prepare documents for opening projects, so youll need to be very confident using word, excel etc.
