EDI-RU is committed to undertaking research to tackle inequalities in mental healthcare, improve mental health outcomes for under-served populations, bridge the ‘research to practice gap. Our multi-faceted, inter-disciplinary distinctive co-production approach with service users, carers, and service providers as partners will enable our unique contribution to research and practice.

Our vision is to place the EDI-RU at the forefront of research, building capacity that better understands and harnesses people’s lived experiences to develop interventions, learning, and practice that help to achieve our strategic aims, ensuring commitment to integrated care policies and procedures.

An experienced Senior Clinical Trials Co-ordinator (SCTC) is required to support the work of GMMH’s Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Research Unit (EDI-RU). This involves but is not limited to day-to-day management of clinical trial activities and coordination of the trials across multiple sites.

The postholder will also have skills in mixed methods research (data collection, analysis, and dissemination) and knowledge and experience of research with groups currently under-represented in research. They will have a keen interest in involving patients, families and carers, members of the public, and other key stakeholders in research.
