An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Research Practitioner to work at the Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
LUHFT has a proven track record in successfully recruiting into NIHR portfolio and commercial studies. They conduct a variety of projects, including observational and cohort studies, device and drug trials as well as mixed methods and qualitative research.
The Research Practitioner must be a strong advocate for research and patients, able to both recruit and provide effective support to research participants.
Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust comprises Aintree University Hospital, Broadgreen Hospital & Royal Liverpool University Hospital.
We are part of NHS University Hospitals of Liverpool Group, formed on 1 Nov 2024 from the coming together of LUHFT and Liverpool Women’s NHS Foundation Trust. The Group was born from a shared aim to improve the care we provide our patients.
UHLG is one of the largest employers in the region, with over 16,800 colleagues dedicated to caring for our communities - from birth and beyond.
For the 630,000 people across Merseyside, we are their local NHS. We provide general and emergency hospital care, alongside highly specialised regional services for more than two million people in the North West.
Aintree University Hospital is the single receiving site for adult major trauma patients in Cheshire and Merseyside and hosts a number of regional services including an award-winning stroke facility. Broadgreen Hospital is home to elective surgical, diagnostic and treatment services, together with specialist patient rehabilitation. Liverpool Women’s Hospital specialises in the health of women and babies, delivering over 7,200 babies in the UK’s largest single site maternity hospital each year. The Royal Liverpool University Hospital is the largest hospital in the country to provide inpatients with 100% single bedrooms and focuses on complex planned care and specialist services.

The Research Practitioner will be responsible for the day-to-day coordination and delivery of research studies. This includes identifying and screening potential participants, recruiting patients in line with study protocols, supporting the informed consent process, and managing all study-related procedures. These may include venepuncture, ECGs, completion of study databases, and the collection, processing, and shipment of biological samples.
All clinical research activity must be conducted in compliance with the European Union (EU) Directive and in accordance with the International Conference on Harmonisation Good Clinical Practice (ICH/GCP) guidelines.
