Exciting Opportunity for a Part-Time Secondment as Senior Research Nurse
This is a very exciting opportunity for a part-time secondment as Senior Research Nurse in the Commercial Delivery Research Centre NHS University Hospitals of Liverpool Group (UHLG). UHLG has been named as host to one of 20 research hubs across the UK.

As part of the NHS 10-year health plan, the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has announced plans to establish 20 Commercial Research Delivery Centres (CRDCs), giving patients access to pioneering clinical trials and treatments in record time.
The Liverpool CRDC, funded by a government private investment initiative, will support the rapid set-up of commercial studies, meaning patients can begin accessing treatments and undergoing trials as early as possible. Alongside UHLG, the centre will bring together Cheshire and Mersey organisations including primary and social care; voluntary organisations and 10 secondary care organisations from the region.
