Senior Research Fellow
6 days ago
This is an exciting opportunity to join a cancer research unit with a real pedigree in clinical research involving NHS cancer patients.
You'll join a health services research team with an excellent track record of winning multimillion pound NIHR grants, in addition to major strategic commercial partnerships with both national and international organisations (Nuffield Health and Boston Scientific Corp).
Your role will be to bring your data management and quantitative analytical skills, as well as project management experience, to work across our funded collaborative research portfolio.
You will deliver bespoke research and leadership tasks, support senior and junior researchers and support our national and international network. We expect that you will contribute to our unit's already excellent reputation.
The STAMINA research team has been successfully undertaking large multi-center clinical trials of complex behavioural interventions in NHS cancer populations for over a decade.
We are experts in clinical trial performance, intervention design, development, and evaluation. We have a mix of clinical and non-clinical staff and take a whole-team approach to project support. This has been a key feature of our success.
We proactively look to develop talented researchers from within our unit, offering support and mentoring to talented and ambitious individuals who want to work hard and gain the trust of the team.
Our School of Health and Social Care delivers a well-established, large and diverse portfolio of undergraduate, postgraduate and degree apprenticeship courses leading to registration in 14 different professions.
We support practitioners to continue to develop their professional roles through our extensive continuing professional development portfolio. Our research portfolio is cutting edge and applied, undertaking challenge-led collaborative interdisciplinary research, innovation and knowledge exchange to inform and transform health and social care.
We offer a diverse range of benefits and opportunities to pursue a rewarding and fulfilling career in a supportive environment.
You will be contractually enrolled into the Teachers' Pension Scheme (TPS) – one of the largest and most generous defined benefit pension schemes in the country.
Find out more about the TPS
If you are, or have been, a recent member of the Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) directly prior to joining us, you can choose to opt out of the TPS and remain in the USS. Please contact the Pensions team to discuss options available.
For this job we particularly welcome applications from minority ethnic applicants who are underrepresented in this area/ this type of job at Sheffield Hallam.
The University may be able to sponsor the employment of international applicants in this role; this will depend on a number of factors specific to the individual applicant.
