Do you have a passion for research? Are you looking to work for a flexible team, playing a key role in widely recognised research studies?

The NIHR Norfolk Clinical Research Facility (CRF), located at the main hospital and the Quadram Institute (Norwich Research Park) is one of 28 NIHR – partly funded clinical research facilities networked across the UK.

About the Role

Team NNUH’s Research and Development department have a position for a Clinical Research Nurse in the Women’s and Children’s team.

The team’s shared goal is; to undertake clinical research to improve treatment and care of patients here at NNUH and beyond. The ideal candidate will be dedicated and recognise the goal’s significance; as well as the importance of the Trust PRIDE values. Research is highly regulated; you should have an understanding of trial protocols and policies, and an awareness of research governance.

As post-holder, you will play a key role in ground-breaking research studies. This post is perfect for an organised individual who is happy to work independently and as part of a wider team. We regularly hit targets and are known for the innovative research projects we have facilitated.

If you like to be kept busy and enjoy the satisfaction of knowing you have made a difference, we would love to hear from you.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
