Applications are invited for a full-time Research Study Coordinator position. You will join a team led by Professor Roman Hovorka to work on research studies evaluating the artificial pancreas and/or other therapeutic intervention in type 1 and type 2 diabetes. We are seeking an enthusiastic, highly motivated person who wishes to pursue a career in clinical and translational research. You will be based at the Institute of Metabolic Science, Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge Biomedical Campus, where you will join our team of scientists and clinical researchers working to translate findings into benefits for human health.
The ideal candidate would be educated to degree level in Biomedical Science or a closely related discipline and would have previous experience in study coordination. The successful applicant will be responsible for preparing and maintaining documentation related to clinical studies, communicating with ethics and regulatory bodies, communicating with external partners, organising meetings, reporting to funders and other external bodies, managing supplies, and being involved in other relevant clinical study activities.
