The National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Manchester Clinical Research Facility (CRF)

We are looking for a motivated and dynamic individual to take on the role of the CRF Education and Training Practitioner.

The Manchester CRF provides opportunities for people of all ages and backgrounds across Greater Manchester to take part in research.

Hosted by Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust in partnership with The Christie NHS Foundation Trust and the Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust, the Manchester CRF is the largest and most comprehensive of the 28 NIHR Clinical Research Facilities, enhancing translation of scientific advances through experimental research.

Manchester CRF operates six world-class facilities based at NHS teaching hospitals across Greater Manchester delivering a diverse range of cutting edge, early phase experimental medicine studies for adults and children at:
The Christie

Manchester Royal Infirmary

North Manchester General Hospital

Royal Manchester Children's Hospital

Salford Royal Hospital

Wythenshawe Hospital

As the Education and Training Practitioner you will work in partnership with the MCRF senior management team and with the individual MCRF site management teams and will be responsible for ensuring the provision of high-quality training and education across the MCRF.

You will ensure that the professional development needs of the MCRF workforce are met by supporting and taking responsibility for aspects of MCRF education strategies through the delivery of education and training programmes and will act as an exemplary role model for learners.

You will work across MCRF partner organisations and will liaise with the newly established NWCRF Alliance to maximise training opportunities.

The scope of the role also extends to supporting the NIHR Manchester CRF's Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy.

MFT is one of the largest NHS Trust In England with a turnover of £2.6bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts. We’re creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.

Bringing together 10 hospitals & community services from across Manchester, Trafford & beyond, we champion collaborative working & transformation, encouraging our 28,000 workforce to pursue their most ambitious goals. We set standards that other Trusts seek to emulate so you’ll benefit from a scale of opportunity that is nothing short of extraordinary.

We’ve also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research, and innovation through the introduction of Hive; our Electronic Patient Record system which launched in September 2022.

We’re proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes. What’s more, we’re excited to be embarking on our Green Plan which sets out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.

At MFT, we create and foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, provide equal opportunities for career development that are fair, open, and transparent, protecting your health and wellbeing and shaping the future of our organisation together.

Diversity Matters

We’re looking forward to hearing from you
