The post holder will provide clinical management and operational leadership for the research practitioner workforce working across the Trust, which will include all aspects of research. The post holder will be responsible for leading the research practice, research skills, development and training of the research practitioner workforce within the Trust. The post holder will ensure the implementation of team objectives to enhance the performance and development of the research practitioner team and act as a role model for the research practitioner team. The post holder will work with the team to facilitate the Trust research aims at a local level being mindful of the effective use of resources to ensure timely set up and delivery of studies to agreed targets.
Leadership and management of a newly formed team within the Research and Development Department. This team will be made up of experienced Research practitioners from Bands 3 to 6, with the initial emphasis on research into the areas of Rheumatology and Respiratory conditions. We already have an enviable track record in these two areas and hope to consolidate this by increasing our recruitment to all research studies, especially the prestigious commercial research commissioned by the life sciences industry.
The role will also be expected to manage their own portfolio of clinical research studies, with an emphasis on commercial studies and they will also take the lead role in setting up and managing new studies.
As part of their line management duties, the Senior Research Practitioner will develop more junior staff to be able to take over the running of these studies in the future.
For these reasons, we are looking for an accomplished research practitioner with experience of working on a range of studies and the aptitude to nurture and guide a team with a mixed range of experience and skill.
We operate from three main hospitals - Furness General Hospital (FGH) in Barrow, the Royal Lancaster Infirmary (RLI), and Westmorland General Hospital (WGH) in Kendal, as well as a number of community health care premises including Millom Hospital and GP Practice, Queen Victoria Hospital in Morecambe, and Ulverston Community Health Centre.
FGH and the RLI have a range of General Hospital services, with full Emergency Departments, Critical/Coronary Care units and various Consultant-led services.
WGH provides a range of General Hospital services, together with an Urgent Treatment Centre, that can help with a range of non-life threatening conditions such as broken bones and minor illnesses.
All three main hospitals provide a range of planned care including outpatients, diagnostics, therapies, day case and inpatient surgery. In addition, a range of local outreach services and diagnostics are provided from community facilities across Morecambe Bay
Our community services for adults are provided in people’s homes, community centres, clinics, GP Practices, community hospitals and our main hospitals. Our aim is to work with people to help them remain independent, improve their health and manage their conditions through high quality care, advice and support.
