Cambridge, United Kingdom Innovia Technology Full time

Innovia Technology has an exciting new role for an experienced study coordinator to manage the logistics for our growing primary research capability and support the work of our Innovation Consultants.

**Primary Research at Innovia**

Innovia forms unique multidisciplinary teams of specialists from across science, medicine, engineering, design, business strategy and human behaviour to create holistic breakthrough innovations for global clients who are leaders in a wide range of sectors from healthcare to transport, food, luxury retail, and more.

Central to our ability to provide well-rounded recommendations and creative technical solutions is the rigorous academic training and evidence-based approach of our consultants and project teams. Primary research and analysis have become a growing part of our in-house evidence gathering procedures which also include: small scale experiments, systematic literature review, prototyping, commissioning research and testing, organising and interpreting data, measuring business considerations, and integrating diverse expertise.

**The Opportunity**

**Location**: Cambridge, UK

**Duration**: 18-month short term contract

**Hours**: 30 hours per week with flexible scheduling (0.8TE)

In this role you will be working with key consultants experienced in research to coordinate the logistics of our expanding primary research activities linked to client projects.

These activities typically take the form of short 1-3 month projects focused around innovation, concept testing and intervention research. Our studies are mostly performed online, but we are likely to incorporate more in-person focus groups and interviews in the future, which will be based out of our Cambridge UK office and in some other locations as required by our clients.

Studies often involve aspects of behavioural science, product design, and life sciences, and as a result you are likely to work closely with our consultants who specialise in these fields, alongside our experienced Consultant Support staff.

In this role you are likely to spend 50% of your time coordinating and developing our research activities, and 50% on supporting the work of our consultants most engaged with study coordination.

**Key Responsibilities**:
Study Planning and Organisation
- Liaise with internal stakeholders: consultants in key disciplines, project managers, business support and utilisation team
- Identify new opportunities for better quality and more efficient primary research processes
- Track and manage requests for fieldwork
- Scope costs and timelines for potential studies

- Prepare comprehensive plans for study activities
- Create fieldwork schedules for clients/PMs and key research personnel for interviews and focus groups
- Ensure compliance with legal and ethical requirements

Developing Materials and Recordkeeping
- Facilitate the upload and processing of study materials (interview audio and video), including data entry and cleaning where required
- Maintain electronic files and folders relating to studies
- Complete data verification processes required to pay associates

Coordinating Ongoing Activities
- Support a team of behavioural scientists’ research needs (e.g. training)
- Work alongside consultant support professionals to provide support in the preparation, fieldwork management, and on-going improvement of fieldwork
- Ensure interview stimuli are prepared and ready for each interview
- Check participant consent forms and homework tasks
- Track schedules, send reminders to participants, and review transcripts
- Set up videoconferencing and other IT/AV needs
- Liaise with our Consultant support team where fieldwork travel may be required
- Liaise with recruitment agencies to ensure targets and quality standards are met
- Anonymise data to ensure interviews are double-blind
- Manage any problems or concerns relating to the interviews from research associates and participants
- Respond thoughtfully to study-related questions from the client
- Report progress to internal and external stakeholders

General Administrative Support for Consultants and Internal Business Functions
- This will vary according to the needs of the business but is likely to include arranging and minuting internal meetings, following up on actions, updating internal files and records, purchasing of equipment and materials, and collating and drafting reports

We are looking for an experienced study coordinator who is enthusiastic about organisation and logistics, excited about research, and who enjoys creating materials for studies and handling data.

Essential skills
- Previous experience working in a medical, health or consumer research environment (5 years+)
- Familiarity with qualitative research methods
- Signifi
