Main duties of the job
We are looking for a Hospital Setting lead to support the regional research delivery within health and care settings for the new south central region. Working collaboratively, you will support regional research portfolio activities and identify and address the impact on regional health and social inequalities across all stages of research.
You will play a vital role in leading and supporting the successful delivery of high-quality research, as an active partner in the research system, to increase capacity and capability of the research infrastructure for the future. As a result, research will reach more people, address changing population needs, support the health and care system and the economy, and become a routine part of care - for the benefit of patients, the health and care system and the economy.
This is an exciting time for UK research and we want to make the UK the best place in the world for commercial companies to bring new treatments and technologies, so these roles are critical to our success in the south central region - and nationally.
