Position Title: Research Coordinator
Reports to: Head of Translational Research
FT/PT: PT, hybrid position
Location: UK, Crawley Office
Position Summary:
Leo Cancer Care is pioneering a novel approach to radiotherapy where patients are treated upright rather than lying down. As part of this mission, we work closely with clinical partners, academic institutions and research consortia to advance the science around this paradigm shift.
We're looking for a part-time Research Coordinator to support and help drive our research ecosystem. You'll work at the intersection of industry, academia, and clinical research—coordinating projects, building relationships with collaborators, and helping ensure research runs smoothly from initial ideas to published outcomes.
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, thrives on organization, and wants exposure to cutting-edge cancer research without necessarily performing the research themselves. It is a hybrid role associated with our UK office.
Key Responsibilities:
-
Project & programme coordination
- Support teams with research project planning, tracking, milestones, and deliverables to keep a broad portfolio of projects moving.
- Liaise with collaborators (clinicians, academics, students, charity partners, and patient representatives) to arrange research agreements, visits, meetings, and study logistics.
-
Grant & funding support
- Support grant applications by coordinating input from contributors, tracking submission deadlines, and assisting with drafting and formatting.
