Research and Development Data Administrator

Role overview

The NIHR UCLH Clinical Research Facility (CRF) is a long-established research environment operating across two locations: the Bloomsbury campus at 170 Tottenham Court Road, which supports a broad cancer and medical research portfolio, and the Leonard Wolfson Experimental Neurology Centre at Queen Square, a specialist experimental medicine site for neuroscience research.

This opportunity is for a motivated and proactive Data Administrator to join the CRF team. The main focus of the post is accurate data entry and data management for a wide range of clinical trials, from first-in-human studies through to complex phase 3 trials, as well as experimental non-IMP research. The work must align with study protocols, Good Clinical Practice (GCP), and the UK Medicines for Human Use (Clinical Trials) Regulations.

The role may require working across both CRF sites depending on service needs and the demands of a busy, varied study portfolio. Two vacancies are available: one permanent position and one fixed-term position.
