Edinburgh, United Kingdom Kids Operating Room Full time

JOB TITLE: Data & Research Coordinator

REPORTS TO: Impact & Evaluation Manager

HOURS OF WORK: Full time

LOCATION: Based in our Edinburgh office on George Street

SALARY: £20,000 per annum

**Kids Operating Room**

We believe in a world where every child has equal access to safe surgery

That doesn't seem like such a big ask. Every child has a right to life and that shouldn't be taken away by an injury or illness that can be easily fixed. Children who battle cancer and undergo chemotherapy shouldn't get to the end of that process only to be denied the surgery that will offer them the chance of survival. Children who break an arm or a leg shouldn't live the rest of their lives in disability.

Babies who need simple procedures in the first hours of life shouldn't be left to die, and children born with urological conditions shouldn't be denied an education because they cant access the simple operation they need.

Our vision is for a world where every child is treated equally

Our mission is to support local doctors, through the provision of training and infrastructure, to ensure they can use their incredible talents to care for their nations children. The number of children we need to reach is overwhelming. They urgently need our help.

**Our mission**

Provide dedicated, specialist facilities and equipment for children's surgery in low resource settings
Support existing surgical teams to deliver safe surgery for children
Monitor, collate and understand our impact on surgical outcomes

Advocate on the global plight of children denied access to safe surgery

**What we do**

KidsOR is a UK based charity that works with partner hospitals in low and middle income countries to develop high quality, safe surgical services for children.

We work closely with regional Surgical Colleges, the Global Initiative for Children's Surgery, partner NGOs and national Departments of Health to identify where the existing and/or training children's surgeons are. We then work with those people and their teams to ensure they have all the equipment they need to properly care for local children.

We also provide scholarships for children's surgery, helping strengthen local workforces and, in some countries, helping develop the first ever children's surgeons.

**Understanding our impact**

We are proud to partner with University California San Francisco, who carry out independent analysis of our intervention. In partnership with the local hospitals, we record every single operation and look at the wider impact on the child and family.

In refugee settings, we will work with local researchers to monitor and evaluate the impact of providing local care to displaced populations.

This allows us to assess the real impact of providing safe surgical services and also the true geographic reach of that impact.

It also allows KidsOR to look at the economic benefit to a country or region of having high quality surgical services for children.

**How we work**

Our co-founders, Garreth and Nicola Wood, are actively involved in supporting our charitable activities and are part of our Trustee board, which provide ongoing governance and guidance.

Garreth and Nicola founded Kids Operating Room with the vision of a world where every child has equal access to safe surgery. They firmly believe that access to surgery is a basic human right and that every child should receive urgent healthcare when they need it.

Our CEO, David Cunningham, is a global leader in developing charitable programs for children's health and has provided leadership to healthcare projects in the UK and across the world. David is a highly regarded charity regulation expert and is a board member of the UK Fundraising Regulator and a member of the regulators Standards Committee.

Day to day operational activities are split between three directors who manage teams based in Nairobi, Dundee (our Global Operations base) and Edinburgh where our administrative office is located.

**Our benefits**

We have a range:

- A flexible, friendly work environment
- Company contribution pension scheme
- Free health insurance upon completion of probation period
- Sector leading policies for those on maternity and parental leave
- Death in service benefit
- An extra day of annual leave on your birthday
- Global travel opportunities

**Our commitment to inclusion**

Everyone benefits when people can bring their whole selves to work. Whether you're a volunteer, a prospective employee or a full time member of staff, at KidsOR we want you to feel involved in all aspects of our work and to have amazing opportunities during your time with us - regardless of your background.

We're working hard to build a KidsOR team that reflects the communities we serve - we know diversity makes us stronger as an organisation and more effective in what we do.

We welcome people regardless of age, disability, gender identity, marital status, race, faith or belief, sexual orientation, socioeconomic background, and whether
