Resource and Project Coordinator (2 posts)

We are looking for organised, motivated and enthusiastic Resource and Project Coordinators to provide varied administrative support initially across two research areas of the medical school. We would be pleased to appoint one person to work across both projects, or two people to focus on the projects individually:

- 0.25fte for to support _PARITY (Prehabilitation for Cancer Surgery Quality and Inequality)_:
Prehabilitation can be described as ‘the practice of enhancing a patient’s functional capacity before surgery, with the aim of improving postoperative outcomes.’ A wide variety of prehabilitation programmes are available, often involving dietary, exercise, and psychological interventions. However, because these interventions require engagement, time and access to facilities, they may not be acceptable or accessible to all. The PARITY study aims to make a major contribution towards addressing these problems of variation and inequality in prehabilitation before cancer surgery. This will involve working with patients, carers and healthcare professionals to find ways to describe, measure and assess the quality of services. We will map these criteria on a national scale and identify and share best practice examples of how services are developed, funded, and delivered, as well as ways to address health inequalities.
- 0.2fte for to support _Periprosthetic femoral fractures: data, management and outcomes_, in partnership with from Leeds University and Imperial College London:
Hip and knee joint replacements (known as prostheses) are a common way of treating bones damaged by fractures or arthritis. However, they present a number of challenges if the patient later fractures their thigh bone (femur) near to the prosthesis, known as a periprosthetic femoral fracture (PPFF). We have little reliable data on patients with PPFFs. We know treatment varies widely between hospitals, but not how this affects patients’ experience and outcomes, or what health professionals, patients and their families think should be done to improve care.

This study will combine existing data with new information, to understand how patients with PPFF are cared for and how this can be improved. Firstly, we will analyse data from four existing databases of fractures and joint replacements. This will tell us how many patients with PPFF are treated by individual surgeons and hospitals, and how patient outcomes vary. Next, we will visit several hospitals that represent the different ways of providing PPFF care, and analyse their approaches. Finally, we will use a structured process to build consensus out of patients’ and their family members experience and health professionals’ expertise to create a set of quality-of-care measures and develop resources to help patients and their families understand PPFF treatment and recovery.

You will need to be able to prioritise your workload in a supportive beneficial working relationship with the relevant project leads and wider medical school staff. Excellent administrative and organisational skills and experience of using computer packages are essential, as is the ability to work flexibly as part of a rapidly expanding department. Ideally you will have previous administrative experience of working in a research environment of higher education.

Excellent interpersonal skills alongside a proven team player and confident communication skills are essential.

The Faculty provides an environment that strongly supports the individual needs of each employee, promoting a healthy work-life balance. We are committed to family-friendly and flexible working policies on an individual basis, as well as the Athena SWAN Charter, which recognises and celebrates good employment practice undertaken to address gender equality in higher education and research.

Lancaster Medical School is committed to ensuring our workforce is reflective of our diverse student population and is therefore committed to increasing representation of staff of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds across all roles and at all levels.
