Provide statistical expertise to drive healthcare improvements
Statisticians - 2 posts (fixed-term contract until March 2008)
£29,288 - £42,601 (depending on experience) • London
The Healthcare Commission exists to promote the
improvement of quality of the NHS and independent
healthcare. Authoritative and trusted statistical
information is critical to driving healthcare
improvements, and as part of our Informatics team
you can expect involvement in a wide range of
projects in support of our analytical functions.
Your role will extend from delivering hands-on
analyses of large, national, complex datasets to
providing consultative, expert advice on
statistical methodology. As well as delivering
findings that influence the work of Trusts, the
Department of Health and our own teams, you’ll
identify and implement method improvements and
undertake rigorous checks to ensure our analyses meet agreed criteria.
Ideally a postgraduate, you will have spent
several years assimilating and analyzing
health-related data, be adept at using
statistical software including STATA, SPSS, SQL
and Excel, and have a detailed understanding of
applied statistical methodology. Equally
important will be the verbal and written
communication skills to deliver concise and
relevant findings to strict deadlines.
