Note – this role will work across projects in Mind & Body, dividing time across workstreams, where needed, to support effective project delivery as required for the programme.
The post holder will work closely with the wider team, as well as clinical, operational and academic colleagues across KHP.
In many cases these projects will be developed and delivered at a fast pace, working closely with the relevant project leads, who are senior academics and clinicians from across our partnership and their teams.

The post holder will take an active role in delivering the overall strategy, and lead on scoping the objectives, deliverables, and approach for designated projects/workstreams with specific projects. This will include evaluation of initiatives to support building the evidence base for mind & body care.
