Data Manager / Research Assistant Psychologist
This is a fantastic opportunity for a Data Manager / Research Assistant Psychologist for a Wellcome funded research study, SloMo2. SloMo is a digitally supported, cognitive-behavioural therapy for psychosis that improves fear of harm from others (or paranoia). The SloMo2 study is investigating if SloMo therapy can be delivered by real world clinicians, by conducting a clinical investigation of its implementation, effectiveness, and cost-effectiveness in three NHS Trusts.
The postholder will join a friendly study team that is led by Dr. Amy Hardy. The post will be supervised by Dr. Katie Taylor-Ryan, Study Coordinator and Dr. Sarah Swan, Therapy Lead. The postholder will work alongside a lived experience researcher, and liaise with routine care psychological practitioners to facilitate data collection, promote uptake, and for provision of technical support.
Key Responsibilities
- To provide data management and reporting support for the SloMo2 study, ensuring data integrity and completeness.
- To support research delivery in line with Good Clinical Practice through quantitative and qualitative data collection, safety monitoring, and Patient and Public Involvement.
- To support SloMo as a therapy service through provision of technical support, liaison with therapists, and assistance to the Therapy Lead.
- To contribute to team functioning and project management through effective communication, organisation, and use of supervision.
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.
