Research Facilitator

7 days ago

Saint Ives, United Kingdom Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust Full time

An exciting opportunity has arisen within the Research Team at Cambridgeshire Community Service (CCS) NHS Trust. We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated Research Facilitator, to support research activity and culture. The post is funded by the Regional Research Delivery Network (RRDN EoE).
The post is fixed term until 31st March 2026.
This fixed term post is to support the Trust Research Team in the facilitation of the adoption of research studies which are currently on the National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) portfolio into clinical areas throughout the Trust and in the promotion of other research opportunities.
The aim of the role is primarily to support our clinical services to participate in all relevant NIHR Portfolio Studies, including commercial research, to develop the research culture and the readiness of services to deliver Clinical Trials of Investigational Medicinal Products (CTIMPS). The post holder is also likely to collaborate with other academic institutions and research networks such as the NIHR Research Delivery Network (RDN) East of England (EoE).
Rated ‘Outstanding’ by the Care Quality Commission, we are proud to provide high quality innovative services across most of the east of England that enable people to receive care closer to home and live healthier lives.
There’s one reason why our services are outstanding - and that’s our amazing staff who, for the seventh year running, rated us incredibly highly in the national staff survey.
You should ideally have experience of clinical research, including commercial research, or be able to transfer your previously gained relevant clinical skills and knowledge to the role. However, whilst this is preferred, full induction, training and mentoring will be provided.
You will work with CCS research team to support ongoing development of the research culture across the service. This may include supporting our clinical teams in identifying and recruiting patients, seeing the patient through the trial, performing study assessments, and ensuring data is reported accurately and on time.
You will work closely with a variety of healthcare professionals across the service so excellent communication skills are essential, as is attention to detail. It is essential that you can work autonomously and manage your own workload but also to work as part of a team.
The post holder may be asked to contribute to other Trust-wide projects or research work streams running.
The team works across a variety of clinical specialties within the Trust so you must be willing to be mobile and flexible in your working practices. The role will cover the whole of the Trusts geography, the base is to be confirmed, our headquarters is in St Ives and travel will be required.
For informal discussion or virtual face-to-face meetings (via Microsoft Teams) about the team and the post are available as required. For further details please contact either;
