We are seeking a motivated and experienced Senior Clinical Trials Assistant to join the Paediatric Research Team within our Clinical Research Facility. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in the delivery of high-quality clinical research studies, supporting both participants and the wider multidisciplinary research team.  Our team participates in research within many different paediatric specialities and areas both within the hospital setting, as well as in the community.

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, and performing anthropometric measurements such as height and weight.
