Trosolwg o'r swydd

University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust is delighted to offer a fantastic opportunity to work with us. 

Please see below for detailed job description of the role. 

Prif ddyletswyddau'r swydd

We are seeking a motivated and experienced Senior Clinical Trials Assistant to join the Adult Team within our Clinical Research Facility. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in the delivery and coordination of high-quality clinical research studies, including the NIHR Bioresource project, human challenge studies and early phase research supporting both participants and the wider multidisciplinary research team. 

The post holder will assist in the delivery of clinical research studies, providing direct patient care alongside essential administrative and organisational support. You will be responsible for organising and managing your own workload, including the day-to-day coordination and implementation of delegated clinical trials, ensuring studies are conducted in line with protocols, Good Clinical Practice (GCP), and regulatory requirements. 

You will be expected to develop and maintain clinical knowledge and practical skills relevant to the role, enabling you to provide a consistently high standard of care to participants and volunteers taking part in research studies. Working within your scope of competence, you will deliver direct clinical care and undertake a range of clinical tasks and observations. These will include, but are not limited to, venepuncture, manual and electronic blood pressure measurement, recording ECGs, performing anthropometric measurements such as height and weight and other study specific assessments.

Gweithio i'n sefydliad

As one of the largest acute teaching Trusts in England, we offer learning and development opportunities to help you achieve the career you aspire to. UHS is rated ‘Good’ by the CQC and in the latest national NHS Staff Survey, we were in the top 10 acute trusts for staff engagement and for staff recommending the hospital as a place to work or receive care. 

 We support flexible working and will consider requests taking into account the needs of the service. UHS employees are able to access a range of NHS discounts, are entitled to a minimum of 35 days paid holiday (pro rata), and we offer a generous pension scheme.

 Southampton is an attractive place to live and work situated on the south coast, with an international airport and direct trains to London. The New Forest National Park and beaches of the Jurassic coast are also right on our doorstep. The city offers living costs 30% lower than London and 17 schools rated outstanding by Ofsted.

 We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.
