The post holder will lead and manage projects using effective change management strategies, work autonomously and manage their own workload. The post holder will always maintain and ensure others maintain high standards of practice in accordance with the Research Governance Framework and appropriate quality standards (e.g. ICH-GCP). This work will involve collaboration with members of the NHS, the wider research community including Universities, the general public and research networks.

The Research Fellow will be expected to identify and recruit community members, mental health service users and carers eligible to take part in a range of projects, provide information, care and advice on all aspects of their involvement in clinical trials. They will also be responsible for supporting junior members of the team, including advising and proper reporting of any adverse events.

The post holder will undertake all of these responsibilities with keen attention to detail and excellent organisational and communication skills.

The Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (LYPFT) is the main provider of Mental Health and Learning Disability services in Leeds. We also provide specialist inpatient services in York and some highly specialised services across the country. As a teaching trust with strong links to local universities, we are a centre of excellence for teaching, research and development.

There are many benefits of working for LYPFT including fantastic employee wellbeing support, 27 - 33 days annual leave, flexible working and remote working arrangements, the NHS Pension Scheme, coaching, support and opportunities for career development and training and education support alongside a range of exclusive discounts and payment schemes including for cars, extra leave days and more NHS Discount Offers.

We also have an incredible bank department, offering variety of roles in nursing, allied health professions, healthcare support worker and administration clerical. Permanent employees are automatically added to bank.

Applicants should be aware that for any individual who requires a visa to work in the UK, the Trust provides sponsorship for registered healthcare practitioner roles only. This is an essential requirement of the role, and the Trust is unable to offer you a role if you are unable to meet Trust requirements for sponsorship and Home Office requirements for a visa.

This post will involve close liaison with mental health, social care and primary services, as well as with relevant Research and Development departments.

The primary aim of this post is to support the expansion of research activity within the trust. This will predominantly involve coordinating the pilot 18-25 service for National Deaf CAMHS and other studies in the team that may need support. The post holder will contribute to the development of the service to clinical trial participants and ensure cost effective use of resources. They will lead and manage this and other projects using effective change management strategies linking to local and national research, work autonomously and manage their own workload. The post holder will at all times maintain and ensure others maintain high standards of practice in accordance with the Research Governance Framework for Health and Social Care, the appropriate quality standards for each trial (e.g. International Conference on Harmonisation of Good Clinical Practice in Clinical Trials (ICH-GCP)) and appropriate standards of probity laid down by their professional body (e.g. nursing and midwifery code of contact). This work will involve collaboration with members of the National Health Service, the wider research community including Universities, the general public and research networks. Additionally, the research fellow will be expected to identify and recruit members of the public, mental health service users and carers eligible to take part in a range of projects and provide information and support, ensuring that they and junior members of the team are working according to ICH GCP and research governance standards for clinical trials. The post holder will provide care and advice to participants on all aspects of their involvement in clinical trials, including advising and proper reposting of any adverse events. This will involve close liaison with mental health, social care and primary services, as well as with relevant Research and Development departments.
